Looters of Tharn: Richard Blade Series #19 by Jeffrey Lord (Author) Tran Mawicke (Illustrator) Publisher: Pinnacle (June 1, 1976) ISBN-10: 0523008554 ISBN-13: 9780523008554 Paperback: 184 pages 5 x 7 inches Richard Blade is an adult fantasy pulp novel series produced by American publisher Pinnacle Books between 1969 and 1984. The 37 books in the series were written by Roland J. Green, Ray Nelson, and Manning Lee Stokes under the pseudonym Jeffrey Lord. The novels were also released as audio books, and as trilogy sets, each set having edited versions of 3 novels on 6 cassettes (running 9 hours, or approximately 3 hours per novel), and later on CDs (1 per book, 3 per trilogy set), under the name "Richard Blade Journeys". These were released as Americana Audiobooks by Americana Publishing in English. The novels were a series of adventures featuring the titular character (MI6A's special agent Richard Blade), who was teleported into a random alternate dimension at the beginning of each novel and forced to rely on his wits and strength. Along the way, he would have several explicitly described sexual encounters with beautiful women (both in England and in the alternate dimensions), and would usually return from his adventure with some item, or bit of knowledge useful to Britain (the ostensible reason for his being sent in the first place). Richard Blade was distinctly British, and all of the stories are set in England (at least at the beginning and end, with Blade’s being teleported to some other dimension for the bulk of each tale).
