Summary "Crypt-City of the Deathless One" by Henry Kuttner is a science fiction novel written in the early 1940s. The story revolves around Ed Garth, a man who has been reduced to a life of drunkenness after a traumatic past that includes the mysterious death of his fiancée and a perilous expedition into an alien Black Forest on the moon Ganymede. He is approached by a group, including a man and a woman, who seek his assistance to guide them into the treacherous wilderness to uncover the secrets of the ancient civilization known as the Ancients, as well as a potential cure for the devastating Silver Plague affecting Earth. At the start of the novel, Ed Garth is found in a shabby bar, grappling with his addiction and haunted by memories of his lost love, Moira. He reluctantly accepts a job from Captain Brown and his companion, Paula Trent, who are looking for a guide to the lost city of Chahnn and subsequently into the perilous Black Forest. Garth's inner turmoil is exacerbated by the promise of a large reward, which could serve as both a potential redemption and a reason for further self-destruction. As they venture deeper into the dangers of the alien terrain, Garth must confront not only the external threats posed by the environment but also the ghosts of his past that threaten to consume him.
