fierce and eldritch light of [Howard’s] frenzied intensity.”
–Stephen King
“Robert E. Howard was a true storyteller–one of the first, and
certainly among the best, you’ll find in heroic fantasy. If you’ve
never read him before, you’re in for a real treat.”
–Charles de Lint
“In this, I think, the art of Robert E. Howard was hard to surpass:
vigor, speed, vividness. And always there is that furious,
galloping narrative pace.”
–Poul Anderson
“For headlong, nonstop adventure and for vivid, even florid,
scenery, no one comes close to Howard.”
–Harry Turtledove
