One day he would return to claim her for his bride, for she had vowed to wait for him. <P> When he captures a ship and discovers Isabel and her elderly husband aboard, he strikes a deal with the man who stole his bride. A chance to regain the lost years of his life…to live his childhood again and pick a new path, in the Land Without Shadow… <P> There Were Two Pirates is a fantasy adventure in James Branch Cabell’s best style, and a terrific addition to the Wildside Fantasy Classics line.
