About the author

Robert Ervin Howard was an American pulp writer of fantasy, horror, historical adventure, boxing, western, and detective fiction. Howard wrote "over three-hundred stories and seven-hundred poems of raw power and unbridled emotion" and is especially noted for his memorable depictions of "a sombre universe of swashbuckling adventure and darkling horror."

He is well known for having created—in the pages of the legendary Depression-era pulp magazine Weird Tales—the character Conan the Cimmerian, a.k.a. Conan the Barbarian, a literary icon whose pop-culture imprint can only be compared to such icons as Tarzan of the Apes, Count Dracula, Sherlock Holmes, and James Bond.

Reviews

[Gilles · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quelques nouvelles de fantastique ou de fantasy, par le fabuleux conteur qu'était Robert Howard. Des nouvelles d'heroic fantasy dont il était le maître, à certaines du genre fantastique, inspirées de son ami Lovecraft; il y a de tout pour nous plaire. Un des rares auteurs qui me plait presque toujours. J'ai beaucoup aimé.

Des nouvelles très datées, quand même, souvent trop longues pour leur bien.
