About this product

Product Information

With an Introduction by M.J. Elliot The sixteenth-century Puritan Solomon Kane has a thirst for justice which surpasses common reason. Sombre of mood, clad in black and grey, he 'never sought to analyse his motives and he never wavered once his mind was made up. Though he always acted on impulse, he firmly believed that all his actions were governed by cold and logical reasonings A hunger in his soul drove him on and on, an urge to right all wrongs, protect all weaker things, and avenge all crimes against right and justice'. Immune to the attractions of the opposite sex, he seems drawn by some psychological distress beacon to places where he knows only that he will be called upon to defend the helpless or (more often) exact retribution on their behalf. Himself a Christian, possessed of enormous strength and skill in swordplay, he yet has little hesitation in calling upon the assistance of his Voodoo-practising friend N'Longa when strength, skill and Christian belief are not enough. Stories include: Solomon Kane Skulls in the Stars The Right Hand of Doom Rattle of Bones The Moon of Skulls The Hills of the Dead The Footfalls Within Wings in the Night Blades of the Brotherhood Death's Black Riders AUTHOR: Robert E(rvin) Howard (1906 - 1936) made a remarkable contribution to a number of genres before his suicide at the age of thirty. He became part of the circle of friends of H.P. Lovecraft and a regular contributor to 'Weird Tales' magazine. Apart from his stories in the 'Lovecraftian' vein, he can be considered a major contributor to the 'sword and sorcery' genre, creating such well-known characters as Conan the Barbarian, Red Sonja and Solomon Kane.
