FARGO -- Cale Mouser from Tenstrike recently received the North Dakota State University Provost Award in the amount of $6,000.
Contains a wealth of critical essays on Leiber's work, together with three poems by Leiber: "Challenge", "Ghosts" and "The Grey Mouser".
Fafhrd talks like a romantic, but his strong practicality usually wins through, while the cynical-sounding Mouser is prone to showing strains of sentiment at unexpected times.
In 1936, Leiber finished the first Fafhrd and Gray Mouser novella, Adept's Gambit, and began work on a second, The Tale of the Grain Ships.
Fischer also wrote "The Childhood and Youth of the Gray Mouser", published in 1978.
Joanna Russ ' stories about thief-assassin Alyx (collected in 1976 in The Adventures of Alyx ) were in part inspired by Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, and Alyx in fact made guest appearances in two of Leiber's stories.
