Robert E. Howard by Leon Nielsen Pdf

Robert E. Howard published primarily in pulp magazines, creating memorable characters like Conan of Cimmeria. After his suicide at the age of 30, pulps continued publishing Howard material posthumously. His first hardcover book appeared in 1937, a year after his death. That book, A Gent from Bear Creek, is the holy grail for Howard collectors--only 12 original copies are known to exist. This invaluable resource for Howard collectors has information for every known published work. Initial chapters provide a biography, discuss Howard's literary legacy, and give basic tips about book collecting and selling. The main body of the work is a bibliography of Howard's published works from 1925 through 2005. A thorough index locates the publication of every Howard story or poem.

Conan's Brethren by Robert E. Howard Pdf

A sumptuous collection of epic fantasy heroes from the pen of Robert E. Howard, one of the true Masters of Fantasy Robert E. Howard was a pulpwriter who turned his hand to everything from historical adventure and detective stories to Western and boxing fiction - and invented the genre now known as sword-and-sorcery: it is for these tales of heroic fantasy and horror that he is best remembered. His mighty heroes - including an English Puritan adventurer sent on redressing grievous wrongs, the king of a mythical, antediluvian empire contemporary with Atlantis, a Pictish warrior-king - all these brothers of the sword and more bestrode the pages of WEIRD TALES and the other pulp magazines of the twenties and thirties. This companion volume follows on from the success of the first Gollancz Big Black Book featuring Howard's world-famous barbarian king, and contains all the stories featuring his brothers-in-arms, collected together in chronological order, as fresh and atmospheric today as when they were first published in the pulp magazines of more than eighty years ago. Compiled by and with an Afterword by award-winning writer and editor Stephen Jones, and with cover image, frontispiece and internal pictures by the award-winning artist Les Edwards.

The Witch of Mad Dog Hill by Don Bowman Pdf

Fiction. Young Adult. Even before it was hidden beneath the waters of the Great Sacandaga Reservoir, the Sacandaga Valley had more than its share of ghosts. No one knows the stories of that inundated Adirondack Valley better than octagenarian Don Bowman. In this new volume, edited by folklorist Vaughn Ward, you will encounter the darker side of the supernatural in that lost valley. THE WITCH OF MAD DOG HILL is replete with chilling tales of those who had dealings with the devil, shape shifters, witches, and haunted houses. All these stories, according to Don Bowman, are true and you'll find the storyteller himself in more than a few of them. You'll also find, as folklore, history, and Don's creative eye intertwine, that these are tales written by a man who can recognize the darkness, but always celebrates the light -- without ever losing his sense of humor in the process. -- Joseph Bruchac, Adirondack writer and storyteller.

Mithraic Societies: From Brotherhood to Religion's Adversary - (b&w) by Abolala Soudavar Pdf

Although by its title, this book seems to be about a specialized topic, the spread of Mithraic societies and its avatars, in time and geographical expanse, much enhances its relevancy. From Roman legionaries to chivalry orders, from dervish circles to guild organizations, and from Freemasons to French revolutionaries, the hierarchy of Mithraic societies, their initiation rites, and their oaths of secrecy, provided a model for brotherhood organization that was efficient, but also flexible; they could adapt their philosophy to the prevailing politico-religion conditions of the day, because they did not worship any particular god, but could also be comrades in arms with nascent religious movements, such as with Christianity. Mithra was the initial guarantor of their oath, and if need be it could be replaced by Jesus, Allah or any other divinity. Their ÒreligionÓ was their brotherhood, and as such they usually provided a counter-balance to the power elite, and had the potential to become politically active.
