"Ka the Appalling" is a fantasy story written by L. Sprague de Camp as part of his Pusadian series. It was first published in the magazine ''Fantastic Universe'' for August, 1958, and first appeared in book form in the anthology ''The Young Magicians'', edited by Lin Carter (Ballantine Books, 1969). It was first brought together with other works of de Camp in his collection ''The Reluctant Shaman and Other Fantastic Tales'' (Pyramid Books, 1970). It has also been translated into French and German. ==Plot summary==
Gezun is saved from a mob in the city of Typhon by the larcenous wizard Ugaph, and enters his service as a hunter to help supply the bats consumed by the wizard's familiar Tety. He is warned away, inevitably futilely, from Ugaph's daughter Ro, his instructor in bat-hunting. After Ugaph is nearly caught attempting to rob the Temple of Ip, he and Gezun plot to con the fanatical Typhonians by pretending to represent a new god, Ka the Appalling, who requires offerings. Unfortunately, they do much too good a job at making their invented god real in the minds of their credulous marks... Chronologically, "Ka the Appalling" is the sixth of de Camp's Pusadian tales, and the fourth to feature his protagonist Gezun of Lorsk. Gezun is about nineteen at the time of this story.
