The Mighty Warriors

The Mighty Warriors is an anthology of fantasy short stories in the sword and sorcery subgenre, edited by Robert M. Price.

It was first published in trade paperback and ebook by Ulthar Press in May 2018,[1] and was a homage to the similar early sword and sorcery anthologies The Mighty Barbarians (1969) and The Mighty Swordsmen (1970) edited by Hans Stefan Santesson.

[2] The book collects eleven sword and sorcery tales of protagonists and settings prominent in the genre, featuring Henry Kuttner's Elak of Atlantis, Clark Ashton Smith's Zothique, Lin Carter's Thongor, David C. Smith's Oron, Charles R. Saunders's Imaro, Richard L. Tierney's Simon of Gitta (based on the legendary Simon Magus), Milton J. Davis' Changa, Charles R. Rutledge's Karrn, and Ken Asamatu's Ikkyū, among others.

According to Price, Bob McLain, prospective publisher of the volume, suggested it instead be billed as a revival of Lin Carter's Flashing Swords!
