Short Fiction Collected (Jerry eBooks, 2025) by Andrew J. Offutt
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 5.8mb
Overview: Offutt began publishing in 1954 with the story “And Gone Tomorrow” in the If. Despite this early sale, he did not consider his professional life to have begun until he sold the story “Blacksword” to Galaxy in 1959. His first true science fiction novel was Evil Is Live Spelled Backwards in 1970. Offutt disliked the title of this book, calling it “embarrassingly amateur”.

Offutt wrote numerous novels and short stories, including several in the “Thieves World” series edited by Robert Asprin and Lynn Abbey, which feature his best known character, the thief, Hanse, also known as Shadowspawn (and, later, Chance). His “Iron Lords” series, likewise, was popular. Offutt also wrote two series of books based on characters by Robert E. Howard. There was a series on Howard’s best known character, Conan, and another one on the less known Cormac mac Art—an Irish Viking active in King Arthur’s time. In fact, Offutt wrote about him far more extensively than did Howard himself.

As an editor Offutt produced a series of five anthologies entitled Swords Against Darkness, which included the first professional sale by Charles de Lint. From 1976 to 1978 he served as president of the Science Fiction Writers of America (SFWA).
