"A Fish Dinner in Memison" is the second novel in the Zimiamvian Trilogy by Eric Rücker Eddison.

"A Fish Dinner in Memison" is a novel centring on the characters of King Mezentius and Fiorinda; much is revealed about the links between principal characters and the separate worlds of the novel, not fully resolved in the other novels in the trilogy. The character of Lessingham is also resolved to its greatest extent in all the novels of the trilogy.

"A Fish Dinner in Memison" overlaps chronologically with "The Mezentian Gate", but since the action starts later than in that work, it can be considered chronologically as the second novel in the series.
