'Medusa' by Clark Ashton Smith, read by Robert Victor Mills

I love the story of Perseus and Medusa, so when I read this fantastic and evocative poem by Clark Ashton Smith, I knew I wanted to record it. It's a great piece; I hope I did it justice. Clark Ashton Smith is best known for his pulp fantasy, however, like Lovecraft and Howard, Smith was also a skilled poet. 'Medusa' is taken from his first poetry collection, 'The Star-Treader', published in 1912. I hope you enjoy my rendition. I am always striving to improve, and feedback, comments and likes are all most welcome. Please do let me know if you would like to hear more, and suggestions for stories and poems to read are invited.
