Mike and Rita of Pegana Press are excited to
begin offering The Age Of Malygris:
Poseidonis Cycle 1 on the website. This
collection was inspired by Clark Ashton Smith's stories of the Magian
Malygris. It includes two illustrations
by the author and a forward by the exquisite Donald Sidney-Fryer.
Made with love and
care at Pegana Press, this book was type set, letter press printed and bound
all by hand. The dimensions of the book
are based on the sacred geometry of the golden rectangle, and for the story titles
we used Civilite type, one of the earliest cursive fonts designed. For the end papers we used Lokta paper, hand
made in Nepal from two varieties of Daphne, one of which is Daphne papyracea,
which gives the book a feeling of antiquity.
It is the mission of
Pegana Press to offer the multi-sensory experience of reading some of the best
authors of the fantasy genre presented in an artisan crafted book. May it meet with your approval.
We invite you to view more pictures of the book on our website and we welcome feedback.
We'll leave you with a quote.
...Perhaps we will not return, but will follow the tropic summer from isle to halcyon isle, across the amaranthine seas of myth and fable...
