Dilvish, the Damned is a collection of fantasy stories by American writer Roger Zelazny, first published in 1982.

[2] The storyline begun in this collection was resolved in the novel The Changing Land, which was published before the other Dilvish stories appeared in book form.

Hundreds of years before the main story, he comes across a dark ritual being performed by the sorcerer Jelerak who is sacrificing a human girl.

His body becomes a statue, and for many decades it resides within the square of a nearby town that he had formerly saved from enemy conquerors.

He returns to the world of the living with his steed, the metal demon horse Black, and a burning desire for revenge against Jelerak, but must first repulse the assault against the endangered town.
