The Fortunes of Brak is a collection of fantasy short stories by American writer John Jakes featuring his sword and sorcery hero Brak the Barbarian. It includes all Brak stories not previously gathered into the earlier books in the series.

Publication history

The first Brak story, "Devils in the Walls", originally published in Fantastic in 1963

The individual pieces were originally published in various magazines and anthologies. The collection as a whole was first published in paperback by Dell Books in January 1980, and reprinted in 1985.[1] Its first two stories were later gathered together with Brak the Barbarian and The Mark of the Demons into the omnibus collection Brak the Barbarian / Mark of the Demons,[2] while its last two stories were combined with Witch of the Four Winds and When the Idols Walked into the omnibus collection Witch of the Four Winds / When the Idols Walked, both published as ebooks by Open Road Integrated Media in July 2012.[3] The third story was left out of both omnibuses.
