In "Black Canaan" even the best warrior has little chance of taking down the evil voodoo man with unholy powers-and none at all against his wily mistress, the diabolical High Priestess of Damballah. The Horror Stories of Robert E. Howard by Robert E. Howard.

About this product

Product Information

Here are Robert E. Howard's greatest horror tales, all in their original, definitive versions. Some of Howard's best-known characters--Solomon Kane, Bran Mak Morn, and sailor Steve Costigan among them--roam the forbidding locales of the author's fevered imagination, from the swamps and bayous of the Deep South to the fiend-haunted woods outside Paris to remote jungles in Africa. The collection includes Howard's masterpiece "Pigeons from Hell," which Stephen King calls "one of the finest horror stories of the twentieth] century," a tale of two travelers who stumble upon the ruins of a Southern plantation-and into the maw of its fatal secret. In "Black Canaan" even the best warrior has little chance of taking down the evil voodoo man with unholy powers-and none at all against his wily mistress, the diabolical High Priestess of Damballah. In these and other lavishly illustrated classics, such as the revenge nightmare "Worms of the Earth" and "The Cairn on the Headland," Howard spins tales of unrelenting terror, the legacy of one of the world's great masters of the macabre.

"For stark, living fear . . . what other writer is even in the running?" H. P. Lovecraft "[Behind Howard's stories] lurks a dark poetry and the timeless truth of dreams." Robert Bloch "Howard had a gritty, vibrant stylebroadsword writing that cut its way to the heart, with heroes who are truly larger than life." David Gemmell "Howard's writing seems so highly charged with energy that it nearly gives off sparks." Stephen King

Not just another anthology
The majority of the stories in this collection do not appear in any other Del Rey/Wandering Star/Subterranean Press or Robert E. Howard Foundation Press title. Yes, there are a few duplicates, but this is largely an essential piece of any REH collection. It is unfortunate many readers pass it by thinking it is another "best-of" collection to be dismissed. Well worth checking out.

A great read!
Though known for adventure/ sword and sorcery stories, Robert E Howard wrote excellent horror stories as well (granted, sometimes the two genres overlapped.) Some of these stories feature his established characters, like Solomon Kane and Bran Mak Morn. Excellent reading for horror and Howard fans!

A Fabulous Collection of Vintage Horror Stories
Although I am not fan of his Conan stories, Robert E. Howard was a crafter of great dark tales, some in Lovecraft's universe without the numbing prose. I was pleased to find this used and discarded library book at a reasonable price, and I am glad I made the purchase.
