	The Statement of Lin Carter
		Lin Carter is certainly the grand master of pastiche, but this may be considered a dubious honor.
		Lin Carter's earliest publications relative to the Cthulhu Mythos were his helpful twin glossaries of gods and texts which appeared in Inside and Science Fantasy Advertiser in 1956 and again three years later in The Shuttered Room.
		Carter is frank in admitting both his admiration for the latter and his intention to "flatter by imitation".

	In Memoriam Lin Carter 1930-1988
		Lin was chiefly responsible for Ballantine reprinting the best of Lord Dunsany, James Branch Cabell, William Morris, Evangeline Walton (I knew her!--she lived in Tucson.) and several others.
		Lin probably summed up his own career and life best in a couple of paragraphs that he wrote as part of the introduction to DISCOVERIES IN FANTASY (Ballantine, 1972).
		Although Lin achieved a fair amount of success between 1968 and 1982, he never really became a superstar and was looked on as something of a hack.

	Violet Books: Forgotten Cities
		Still, Lin is undoubtedly correct in suggesting the 1930s was when the theme ceased to be such a singular driving force in adult adventure fiction, not coincidentally the time when the stars began to be the repository of strange new races of science fiction creatures.
		A Closing Remembrance: Lin Carter is to this day acknowledged as having been a giant among fantasy editors, do primarily to his overseeing the Ballentine Adult Fantasy Series (though Betty Ballantine merits a percentage of that credit), & because of his many influential anthologies of heroic fantasy which were certainly among my favorite books.
		And Lin finally understood he had to pull himself together hence withdrew to a clinic that did not permit him to communicate with the outside world.

	ERBzine 1731: Lin Carter's Callisto
		Lin Carter was a writer and editor, although with a name like that, he almost sounds like he should be some long lost cousin to John Carter.
		As an action hero, the fictional Lin Carter is basically a tourist, the ‘dog’ that adopts him does practically all the work.
		Carter has gone back to Earth at the end of the last book, but the timeline of this book is set before his departure.

	Introduction to The Three Impostors (1972),By Lin Carter
		Under the editorship of Lin Carter, the series began in May of 1969 with the publication of The Blue Star by Fletcher Pratt, and continued for the next four or five years until it died in the editorial changes brought on by the sale of Ballantine Books to Random House.
		Carter's edition is more of a "restored edition" of The Three Impostors, than simply a reprint.
		Carter went back to the original 1895 edition for the text, restoring several stories which were dropped from later editions, and added an additional Mr.

	SFABC - Lin Carter: A Remembrance
		It is perhaps the finest testament a man can have when he leaves the world, or just a corner of it, a better place for his having been born.
		While all fantasy fans owe Lin a debt, this is especially true of those in New Jersey.
		Since I was the one who recruited Salvatore Capaldo, Nancy Cucci, and John Mullen who were among the key replacements for the original founders of what became N J S F S, I doubt that group would have survived.

	Lin Carter's Biographical Introduction to George MacDonald
		MacDonald was born in Aberdeenshire in 1824, ten years earlier than Morris.
		Still, not all of the changes in MacDonald's choice of career are as puzzling as Carter suggests.
		First of all, as Frank H. Turner's study of the professionalization of Victorian science shows, at the time MacDonald graduated from university, very few positions for scientists existed, and most practicing scientists were independently wealthy or ministers -- usually of the Church of England.

		I'm a fan of Conan, and unlike some others, I don't object fanatically to L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter's efforts to complete Howard's unfinished stories and outlines, and to expand the Conan stories into a twelve volume series...at least in principle.
		The De Camp and Carter stories written in posthumous collaboration with Howard are fine, in fact, but you must be wary of the full-length novels in the series that are not at least partially credited to Howard.
		Carter and de Camp do a good job of capturing the Robert Howard "feel" of the tale while making it a full length story.

		Lin(wood Vrooman) Carter was born in St. Petersburg, Florida in 1930.
		The pairing of Lin Carter and De Camp, as always, stays true to Howard's voice.
		It is fast-paced and wonderfully readable, yet it still has the older tones, the older feel that a writer from the 30s would give it.

	Eldritch Words Forum :: Lin Carter as CAS editor
		I've gone through much of the forum as it stands presently, and I'd like to ask some open questions related to Lin Carter's work with CAS material under the Ballantine imprint -- I'd also like to get further information on the long-delayed Don Grant Averoigne book.
		According to The Dark Eidolon #3, which reprinted Lin Carter's proposed but unpublished Clark Ashton Smith collections, an edition of Averoigne was intended for 1977.
		The Maker of Gargoyles, The Holiness of Azedorac, The Colossus of Ylorgne, The Beast of Averoigne, The Mandrakes, The Disinterment of Venus, The Satyr, The End of the Story, A Rendezvous in Averoigne, Mother of Toads, The Enchantress of Sylaire, and Pages from "The Black Book" and Notes for Unwritten Stories by Clark Ashton Smith.

		Bio: Lin Carter was the author of more than 60 fantasy, science fiction, and horror books, primarily pastiches of classic authors such as Edgar Rice Burroughs, James Branch Cabell, A. Merritt, and others.
		His work, while occasionally venturing into purple prose, has a sustained energy and a sense of high adventure missing from many modern fantasists.

	LWE's Favorite Books
		A lot of it was sword-and-sorcery, a genre that's usually pretty bad anyway, and Lin Carter wrote some of the trashiest ever (though not as bad as Gardner Fox -- I've never understood how Fox could write so wonderfully for comic books and so very, very badly when he wrote novels).
		Sure, they wrote nifty stuff, but stylistically, most of their work was horrible.
		In Star Rogue, however, he was trying to imitate Heinlein, and Heinlein is not the sort of purple-prose paid-by-the-word Victorian hangover that Burroughs, Howard, and Lovecraft were.

		If J R R Tolkien was the single author most responsible for the existence of Fantasy as a modern publishing genre then the single editor and critic with the same claim was Lin Carter.
