Product Description

Product Description

From the unsurpassed imagination of the creator of Conan, Robert E. Howard, here are twenty-one tales of suspense, high adventure and Lovecraftian horror. Foul sacrifices are made to a reptilian God in Hungary, a werewolf prowls the corridors of a castle in strife-torn Africa, criminal masterminds on both sides of the Atlantic vie for world domination, an enchanted ring exerts a terrible influence upon its wearer... ...And, as written in the pages of the accursed Necronomicon and Unaussprechlichen Kulten, the Great Old Ones watch our world from beyond the void and wait...

4.0 out of 5 stars Pulp, but so what?, 22 Jun 2009
Robert Howard's work is often described as "pulp" and left at that. Such a description misses out the energy, story-telling ability and knack of creating scary and horrible images that Howard frequently shows. "Graveyard Rats" and "Pigeons from Hell" show this excellently, both classics of the genre. The tales might have been written in the 1930's but they still scare and bite. However, coming from that era, the sexual and racial politics are more than a little dated, but most readers who just want good tales fluently told will be satisfied with this collection.
