Written by Robert E. Howard Illustrated by Gary Gianni Edited by Rusty Burke Design by Marcelo Anciano Typography by Stuart Williams Almost a hundred years ago, Robert E. Howard created the Solomon Kane character. He was...a strange blending of Puritan and Cavalier, with a touch of the ancient philosopher, and more than a touch of the pagan.... A hunger in his soul drove him on and on, an urge to right all wrongs, protect all weaker things.... Wayward and restless as the wind, he was consistent in only one respect-he was true to his ideals of justice and right. Such was Solomon Kane. Thousands of Howard fans worldwide have enjoyed reading and collecting these classic stories. Collected in this volume, lavishly illustrated by award-winning artist Gary Gianni, are all of the stories and poems that make up the thrilling saga of the dour and deadly Puritan, Solomon Kane. Together they constitute a sprawling epic of weird fantasy adventure that stretches from sixteenth-century England to remote African jungles where no white man has set foot. Here are shudder-inducing tales of vengeful ghosts and bloodthirsty demons, of dark sorceries wielded by evil men and women, all opposed by a grim avenger armed with a fanatic’s faith and a warrior’s savage heart. The Savage Tales of Solomon Kane contains the complete Solomon Kane stories, unabridged and unexpurgated, including exclusive, unfinished story fragments and synopses with a complete set of textual notes. One of the stories, “The Footfalls Within,” is published here in its original form for the first time since the initial magazine publication in 1931, a biography of Howard by scholar Rusty Burke, and “In Memoriam,” H. P. Lovecraft’s moving tribute to his friend and fellow literary genius. Collected in this volume are all of the stories that make up the thrilling saga of the dour and deadly Puritan: "Skulls in the Stars," "The Right Hand of Doom," "Red Shadows," "Rattle of Bones," "The Castle of the Devil," "Death's Black Riders," "The Moon of Skulls," "The One Black Stain," "The Blue Flame of Vengeance," "The Hills of the Dead," "Hawk of Basti," "The Return of Sir Richard Grenville," "Wings in the Night," "The Footfalls Within," "The Children of Asshur," and "Solomon Kane's Homecoming." Robert E. Howard’s original writing adds a richness to each of Gary Gianni’s fine illustrations of Solomon Kane. A real treasure from Wandering Star showcasing two legends, Robert E. Howard & Gary Gianni, in their own right. A considerable must-have for any serious Robert E. Howard, Solomon Kane, and/or Gary Gianni enthusiast / collector.
