The Emperor of the Ancient Word and Other Fantastic Stories is a collection of fantasy short stories written by Darrell Schweitzer. It was first published as a trade paperback by Wildside Press in May 2013.[1]

The collection consists of seventeen stories of the author, together with an introductory note by the author. It includes two tales dealing with the titular Emperor of the Ancient Word and one of Schweitzer's tales about the legendary madman Tom O'Bedlam. The pieces were originally published from 2000-2011 in various speculative fiction magazines and anthologies. Schweitzer characterizes them in his introductory note as "some of my best stories from the past ten years or so."
