Solomon Kane: The Pilgrim of Shadows (Heathen Edition), (Paperback)

<p><strong>Robert Ervin Howard </strong>(1906-1936) was an American master of the pulps, a writer whose fierce imagination helped forge the sword-and-sorcery tradition and gave the literary world figures who feel older than their ink - <strong>Conan the Barbarian</strong> chief among them. But before the Cimmerian strode onto the stage, Howard introduced one of his most severe creations in <strong>Solomon Kane</strong>: an ascetic Puritan wanderer compelled by a fury carved into his bones by the Almighty. In these <strong>five early tales</strong>, Kane hunts a murderer across continents, grapples the bloodthirsty ghost of a murdered lunatic, crosses paths with treachery in a shuttered inn, descends into a forgotten kingdom of skulls, and stands against the restless dead in a land scorched by ancient sorcery. Together they reveal the forging of Howard's avenging pilgrim - a man who believes himself God's scourge, armed with a blade, a vow, and a shadow that lengthens with every mile.</p>
