Lord Dunsany. · Rating details · ratings · 24 reviews. This omnibus contains all the stories from Dunsany's earlier collections: Time and the Gods, The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories, A Dreamer's Tales, The Book of Wonder, The Last Book of Wonder, and The Gods of Pegāna. Lord Dunsany is a very flowery writer. The stories are interesting and original yet at times, I find it a difficult read mainly due to his heavy use of Greek/Judeo-Christian-like mythological narratives.
