Sorcerer & Sword is a supplement for Ron Edward's Sorcerer. It adapts the Sorcerer rules from modern horror to the classic Sword & Sorcery genre. The goal here is not to replicate any particular setting, but to provide the tools necessary to create your own stories in unique settings. The book provides bare outlines of three different settings: a post-apocalyptic one, a dark Grimm Brothers style "fairy tale" setting, and a 1,001 Arabian Nights setting.

After a review of the genre the book adapts and introduces new rules and guidelines covering the hero, sorcery, mechanics, and concludes with essays providing an in-depth analysis of play styles and other meta-game concepts.

While it is a supplement for Sorcerer, this book is very effective at picking apart the genre and serves as one of the premier sources on the genre. Particularly notable are Chapters Two and Three which cover the literature and the setting respectively.
