S1E12 -Chapter Twelve: All The Gods Save One!

On the PEGANA stories by Lord Dunsany

In the lost lands of the central sea, a place beyond time, perhaps even existing only in dreams, there is a place where the people have a god they do not worship, lest his waking end the world. Their faith was described in two books and several stories written at the turn of the century by an Irish nobleman that have left a deep mark on the modern fantasy genre, even though he remains obscure outside of genre circles. But Lord Dunsany is likely "your favourite fantasy author's favourite fantasy author". Join us as we explore his Pegana mythos..
