*Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror: We’re continuing to introduce the new layout for our books categories, with an image for each book. This week, we return to our Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror category for some special books by Robert E Howard, creator of Conan. In his short life, as well as the most famous barbarian, Howard wrote of other sword and sorcery/fantasy characters, as well as supernatural/horror tales in both prose and poetry. Some of his incomplete works were later finished by others. Our small selection of Howard books includes some rather special items, including a hardback edition of his horror/supernatural poetry, Always Comes Evening, a lush 700+ page tome of his non-Conan sword and sorcery heroes, Conan’s Brethren and a hardback edition of The Return Of Skullface, completed by Richard A Lupoff. There is also a regular Sphere paperback edition of Conan the Usurper, from their famous series, by Howard and L Sprague de Camp, with a Frazetta cover.
