The Incomplete Enchanter is a collection of two classic fantasy short stories by science fiction and fantasy authors L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt, the first volume in their Harold Shea series. The pieces were originally published in the magazine Unknown in the issues for May and August, 1940. The collection was first published in hardcover by Henry Holt and Company in 1941, and in paperback by Pyramid Books in 1960. It has been reprinted by a number of other publishers since its first appearance. A 1979 edition published by Sphere Books was issued under the variant title The Incompleat Enchanter. The collection has been combined with later books in the series in the omnibus editions The Compleat Enchanter (1975), which presumably influenced the title of the Sphere edition just mentioned, The Complete Compleat Enchanter (1989), and The Mathematics of Magic: The Enchanter Stories of L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt (2007). It has also been published in Dutch.
