Leiber majored in psychology and physiology at the University of Chicago, then spent a year at a theological seminary. His subsequent career included periods as an editor (chiefly with <i>Science Digest</i>) and as a drama teacher. He wrote a draft in 1936 of <i>The Dealings of Daniel Kesserich: A Study of the Mass-Insanity at Smithville</i> (February 1996 <a href="/entry/omni_online">Omni Online</a>; <b>1997</b>), a tale that would have eventually appeared in <a href="/entry/unknown">Unknown</a> had the magazine not folded, though the narrative ultimately unpacks as an exercise in <a href="/entry/time_travel">Time Travel</a>; but he became seriously interested in writing primarily through voluminous correspondence with a college friend, Harry Fischer, who in 1934 suggested the characters of <b>Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser</b>, the <a href="/entry/heroic_fantasy">Heroic-Fantasy</a> duo whose adventures were central to Leiber's career. Both men worked intermittently on embellishments to the saga, as described in detail by Leiber in his essay "Fafhrd and Me" (included in <i>The Second Book of Fritz Leiber</i>, coll <b>1975</b>) and further discussed in <i>Fafhrd &amp; Me</i> (coll <b>1990</b> chap); Fischer was important to Leiber as both a friend and an inspiration, and was the model for the small and nimble Gray Mouser, the very tall Leiber being the model for the likewise tall Fafhrd. The first published story of the sequence, and Leiber's first published story, is "Two Sought Adventure" (August 1939 <a href="/entry/unknown">Unknown</a>; vt "The Jewels in the Forest" in <i>Two Sought Adventure</i>, coll <b>1957</b>); he was still adding to the saga half a century later. The publishing history of the series as a whole is complex, perhaps &ndash; given the fact that most of the vts and resorts that confuse the picture are posthumous in origin &ndash; unduly complex. The first collection of <b>Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser</b> material is assembled in <i>Two Sought Adventure</i> (coll <b>1957</b>; exp and rev vt <i>Swords Against Death</i> <b>1970</b>); Leiber's own multi-volume version of the sequence, published without much regard for internal chronology, comprises, in terms of that internal chronology, <i>Swords and Deviltry</i> (coll <b>1970</b>), <i>Two Sought Adventure</i> (coll <b>1957</b>; exp and rev vt <i>Swords Against Death</i> <b>1970</b>), <i>Swords in the Mist</i> (coll <b>1968</b>), <i>Swords Against Wizardry</i> (coll <b>1968</b>) &ndash; including "The Lords of Quarmall" (January-February 1964 <a href="/entry/fantastic">Fantastic</a>), for which Fischer is credited as co-author &ndash; <i>The Swords of Lankhmar</i> (May 1961 <a href="/entry/fantastic">Fantastic</a> as "Scylla's Daughter"; exp <b>1968</b>), <i>Swords and Ice Magic</i> (coll <b>1977</b>; with six of the eight stories cut vt <i>Rime Isle</i> <b>1977</b>) and <i>The Knight and Knave of Swords</i> (coll <b>1988</b>). Further iterations of the sequence can be found in the Checklist.</p> <p>From fairly prosaic beginnings the series developed into a complex and enjoyable cycle owing little to the standard <a href="/entry/cliches">Clich&eacute;</a> of its subgenre (for which Leiber is credited with coining the widely used description <a href="/entry/sword_and_sorcery">Sword and Sorcery</a>). The mood varies from sombre introspection to broad comedy, and there is a very wide range of invention. On its original publication, the long story <i>Ill Met in Lankhmar</i> (April 1970 <a href="/entry/fsf">F&amp;SF</a>; <b>1990</b> dos) won both <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugo</a> and <a href="/entry/nebula">Nebula</a> awards. <i>The Swords of Lankhmar</i>, which adds an element of sophisticated fetishistic <a href="/entry/sex">Sex</a> to its other virtues &ndash; as does the weaker book-length title story in <i>The Knight and Knave of Swords</i> &ndash; has strong claims to be considered the best modern <a href="/entry/heroic_fantasy">Heroic-Fantasy</a> novel, as well as Leiber's own best novel. The exuberant depiction of the city of Lankhmar and its <a href="/entry/underground">Underground</a> counterpart Lankhmar Below (inhabited by an advanced <a href="/entry/rats">Rat</a> civilization) is both engaging and memorable, and the handling of human <a href="/entry/miniaturization">Miniaturization</a> and its reverse is ingenious.</p> <p>Leiber was noted also for his fantasies in modern settings, and was an influential model for the evolution through the 1980s of the subgenre of Contemporary Fantasy, a form later to be called Urban Fantasy [see <i>The</i> <a href="/entry/encyclopedia_of_fantasy_the">Encyclopedia of Fantasy</a> under <b>links</b> below]; Leiber's work, in fact, more closely resembles British Urban Fantasy &ndash; a genuinely urban form (see <a href="/entry/cities">Cities</a>), with elements of <a href="/entry/steampunk">Steampunk</a> and Fantasy of History (see The <a href="/entry/encyclopedia_of_fantasy_the">Encyclopedia of Fantasy</a>) enriching the mix &ndash; than it does Urban Fantasy in its American guise, where it can be defined as a rebranding of paranormal romance, without necessary marriages. Leiber's examples include: the seminal "Smoke Ghost" (October 1941 <a href="/entry/unknown">Unknown</a>), which superbly captures and animates the hauntedness of life in the modern <a href="/entry/cities">City</a>; <i>Conjure Wife</i> (April 1943 <a href="/entry/unknown">Unknown</a>; assembled in <i>Witches Three</i>, anth/omni <b>1952</b>, ed Fletcher <a href="/entry/pratt_fletcher">Pratt</a>; as a solo book <b>1953</b>; vt <i>Burn Witch Burn</i> <b>1962</b>), a novel of twentieth-century witchcraft which has twice been filmed &ndash; as <i>Weird Woman</i> (<i>1944</i>) and <i>Burn, Witch, Burn</i> (<i>1961</i>; vt <i>Night of the Eagle</i>) &ndash; as well as being adapted for television; "The Man Who Made Friends with Electricity" (March 1962 <a href="/entry/fsf">F&amp;SF</a>); and <i>Our Lady of Darkness</i> (January-February 1977 <a href="/entry/fsf">F&amp;SF</a> as "The Pale Brown Thing"; <b>1977</b>), a subtle and touching Gothic with strong autobiographical elements which won a <a href="/entry/world_fantasy_award">World Fantasy Award</a>. Other fantasy tales include "Gonna Roll the Bones" (in <a href="/entry/dangerous_visions">Dangerous Visions</a>, anth <b>1967</b>, ed Harlan <a href="/entry/ellison_harlan">Ellison</a>), which won a <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugo</a> and a <a href="/entry/nebula">Nebula</a> and later appeared, with other tales of interest, in <i>The Ghost Light</i> (coll <b>1984</b>), which won a <a href="/entry/locus_award">Locus Award</a>, and was further published as <i>Gonna Roll the Bones</i> (graph <b>2004</b>) illustrated by David Wiesner; it describes the fate of a compulsive gambler who finds himself playing dice with the Devil, the stake being his soul. "Belsen Express" (in <i>The Second Book of Fritz Leiber</i>, coll <b>1975</b>) won both the Lovecraft Award and the August Derleth Award. Leiber's further awards for fantasy included the 1975 Grand Master of Fantasy (<a href="/entry/gandalf_award">Gandalf</a>) Award and the 1976 Life Achievement Lovecraft Award; the 1981 SFWA Grand Master award (see <a href="/entry/nebula">Nebulas</a>) was presented for his work as a whole. During his lifetime he won altogether six <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugos</a> (two for novels), four <a href="/entry/nebula">Nebulas</a> and about twenty other awards; posthumous plaudits have also been granted.</p> <p>Leiber's first important work of sf is <i>Gather, Darkness!</i> (May-July 1943 <a href="/entry/asf">Astounding</a>; <b>1950</b>), in which a religious dictatorship (see <a href="/entry/religion">Religion</a>) is overthrown by rebels who disguise their superscience (colourfully, if by far-fetched logic) as witchcraft. <i>Destiny Times Three</i> (March-April 1945 <a href="/entry/asf">Astounding</a>; <b>1957</b>) is a neglected <a href="/entry/parallel_worlds">Parallel Worlds</a> tale whose protagonists simultaneously inhabit three radically different time-lines. In the early 1950s Leiber became a regular contributor to <a href="/entry/galaxy">Galaxy Science Fiction</a>, for which he wrote a number of notable stories, chiefly social <a href="/entry/satire">Satire</a>, paramount among these being "Coming Attraction" (November 1950 <a href="/entry/galaxy">Galaxy</a>), which depicts an unpleasantly decadent future USA. <i>The Green Millennium</i> (<b>1953</b>) shows some similar thematic concerns, particularly regarding sexual mores. Leiber then fell silent for four years, through alcoholism (about which he was candid).</p> <p>His return to sf in 1958 was vigorous, his first stories introducing the <b>Change War</b> series (see <a href="/entry/changewar">Changewar</a>: a theme entry based on Leiber's work), built around <a href="/entry/time_paradoxes">Time Paradoxes</a> generated by a war fought through time and space and <a href="/entry/alternate_history">Alternate History</a> by two factions, the "Spiders" and the "Snakes". The sequence comprises <i>The Big Time</i> (March-April 1958 <a href="/entry/galaxy">Galaxy</a>; <b>1961</b> dos) along with most of <i>The Mind Spider and Other Stories</i> (coll <b>1961</b> dos; rev <b>1976</b>), this material being variously reassembled as <i>The Change War</i> (coll of linked stories <b>1978</b>; cut vt <i>Changewar</i> <b>1983</b>). <i>The Big Time</i>, which takes place entirely in one room (an R &amp; R location called the Place, for resting <a href="/entry/time_police">Time Police</a>, sited beyond normal realities) is suggestive of a play in prose form, and reflects Leiber's background in theatre: both his parents were Shakespearean actors and his father appeared in many films; Leiber himself acted on both stage and screen, including a small part in the Greta Garbo film <i>Camille</i> (<i>1936</i>). <i>The Big Time</i> won a <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugo</a> as Best Novel, as did his most ambitious sf work, <i>The Wanderer</i> (<b>1964</b>), a long <a href="/entry/disaster">Disaster</a> novel telling of the havoc caused by the intrusion into the solar system of a strange planet which proves to be a <a href="/entry/world_ships">World Ship</a>. Its mosaic narrative technique, through which events are observed through a multiplicity of viewpoints, foreshadowed the profusion of such novels and films in <a href="/entry/technothriller">Technothrillers</a> in the 1970s and later. In his last sf work of substance, <i>A Specter Is Haunting Texas</i> (July-September 1968 <a href="/entry/galaxy">Galaxy</a>; <b>1969</b>), an exoskeleton-supported <a href="/entry/mars">Mars</a>-born human (see <a href="/entry/space_habitats">Space Habitats</a>) travels back to a <a href="/entry/canada">Canada</a> taken over &ndash; as so often in sf written by Americans &ndash; by the land to the south, and has been renamed North Texas; Leiber's description of post-<a href="/entry/world_war_three">World War Three</a> Texan America is sharply <a href="/entry/satire">Satirical</a>, in particular through its rendering of North America as a <a href="/entry/westerns">Western</a> arena inhabited by bloated half-wits.</p> <p>Leiber won a further <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugo</a> for <i>Ship of Shadows</i> (July 1969 <a href="/entry/fsf">F&amp;SF</a>; <b>1989</b> chap dos), a novella first published in a special Leiber issue of <i>The</i> <a href="/entry/fsf">Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction</a>, and before its release as a standalone title assembled in <i>Ship of Shadows</i> (coll <b>1979</b>); and for the third time won both a <a href="/entry/hugo">Hugo</a> and a <a href="/entry/nebula">Nebula</a> for "Catch that Zeppelin!" (March 1975 <a href="/entry/fsf">F&amp;SF</a>), a vivid <a href="/entry/alternate_history">Alternate History</a> story in which the <a href="/entry/invention">Invention</a> of pollution-free transport, and a clement ending to <a href="/entry/world_war_one">World War One</a>, leads to a fragile <a href="/entry/utopias">Utopia</a>. Selections of his best short fiction include <i>The Best of Fritz Leiber</i> (coll <b>1974</b>) edited by Angus <a href="/entry/wells_angus">Wells</a> anonymously, <i>The Worlds of Fritz Leiber</i> (coll <b>1976</b>), <i>The Ghost Light</i> (also noted above) and <i>The Leiber Chronicles: Fifty Years of Fritz Leiber</i> (coll <b>1990</b>) edited by Martin H <a href="/entry/greenberg_martin_h">Greenberg</a>. Later compilations do not add significantly to the picture, though <i>The Black Gondolier &amp; Other Stories</i> (coll <b>2000</b>), <i>Smoke Ghost and Other Apparitions</i> (coll <b>2001</b>) and <i>Horrible Imaginings</i> (coll <b>2004</b>) are resorts providing some new perspectives and material.</p> <p>Despite his many awards Leiber never quite established an identity as an sf writer in the way he had for his fantasy; for this reason his work has sometimes been undervalued. His work reflected a variety of enthusiasms &ndash; <a href="/entry/cats">Cats</a>, <a href="/entry/chess">Chess</a> and the theatre are all recurrent motifs &ndash; and convictions, notably a distaste for sexual repression and hypocrisy; and he approached his material in various ways. His prose is ebullient; its idiosyncrasies occasionally appear mannered, but its baroque and colourful qualities are usually prevented from becoming slapdash by the force and precision of his narrative style, and by the appositeness of his imagery, at least in his fantasies. Leiber was never perhaps quite as comfortable in sf, where a straining for effect is more often noticeable. Many of his sf works, he revealed, were in fact fantasies rewritten when the fantasy market began to contract. By refusing to create an easily recognizable template for his sf and then adhering to it, he may have sacrificed some popularity; in compensation, he was the only sf and fantasy writer of his generation to be still developing and producing his best work in the late 1970s, and perhaps, in the twenty-first century, seems inherently more modern than any of his peers who, like him, began to publish before World War Two. His dis-ease with univocal modes of telling as a way to describe the world seems increasingly prescient. In 1976 he received the <a href="/entry/world_fantasy_award">World Fantasy Award</a> for lifetime achievement. He was posthumously inducted into the <a href="/entry/sf_hall_of_fame">Science Fiction Hall of Fame</a> in 2001.
