The Goblin Tower Science Fiction Paperback Book by L. Sprauge de Camp 1968
(The Reluctant King #1)

King Jorian was rather attached to his head. 

Hence, he felt his promise to steal the Kist of Avlen, a treasure trove of ancient manuscripts containing magical lore, was a small enough price to pay for a chance to escape his own beheading. 

But when the quest pitted him against one peril after another - a murderous wizard and his giant squirrel, a castle full of executioners, a marauding troupe of ape men, and a voluptuous 500-year-old princess who was also a serpent - Jorian began to wonder whether he'd made such a good bargain.

Book is in acceptable condition. General shelf and corner wear. A few white marks on front and back cover. Some fraying along the cover edges. The spine has some issues (see photo #3).
