Inevitably a little hit-and-miss, since it contains Smith's first faltering steps as a professional prose author, but when it's good it's very, very good. Full review: https://fakegeekboy.wordpress.com/2019/09/14/reading-clark-ashton-smith-for-the-first-time-again-part-1/

An effective and quaint little tale on the splendours of unholy seductions and yearnings. I always preferred Smith's weird fiction to Lovecraft's as he possesses a superior ear for dialogue and paces his narrative in a more timely method. The first of the Averoigne stories.
