About the author

Robert Ervin Howard (1906–1936) was a seminal figure in the genre of sword and sorcery, with his works laying the foundation for what would become a thriving subgenre in fantasy literature. Born in Peaster, Texas, Howard spent much of his life in the rural town of Cross Plains, where he cultivated his writing career. His most notable creation, Conan the Barbarian, would eventually overshadow his other characters, but his literary repertoire extends beyond the Cimmerian tales.

Howard’s Bran Mak Morn trilogy, consisting of ‘Kings of the Night, ‘ ‘Worms of the Earth, ‘ and ‘The Children of the Night, ‘ exemplifies his fascination with bygone civilizations and the interplay between history and legend. His storytelling is characterized by a palpable sense of adventure, vivid depictions of combat, and a dark, brooding atmosphere, often exploring themes of barbarism versus civilization. A member of the ‘Weird Tales’ circle along with contemporaries like H.P.

Tragically, Howard’s life was cut short when he died by suicide at the age of 30. Despite his brief career, Robert E. Howard remains a titan within the fantasy genre, his works continually rediscovered and cherished by new generations of readers drawn to his rugged and mythic realms.
