Robert E. Howard
Acerca de esta escucha
Robert E. Howard, renowned creator of Conan the Barbarian, was also a master at conjuring tales of hair-raising horror. In a career spanning only 12 years, Howard wrote more than 100 stories, with his most celebrated work appearing in Weird Tales, the preeminent pulp magazine of the era.
In this collection of Howard's greatest horror tales, some of the author's best-known characters - Solomon Kane, Bran Mak Morn, and sailor Steve Costigan among them - roam the forbidding locales of Howard's fevered imagination, from the swamps and bayous of the Deep South to the fiend-haunted woods outside Paris, to remote jungles in Africa.
Included in this collection is Howard's masterpiece "Pigeons from Hell", a tale of two travelers who stumble upon the ruins of a Southern plantation - and into the maw of its fatal secret. In "Black Canaan", even the best warrior has little chance of taking down the evil voodoo man with unholy powers - and none at all against his wily mistress, the diabolical High Priestess of Damballah. Also included is the classic revenge nightmare "Worms of the Earth" as well as "The Cairn on the Headland".

Charlie Tower seeks refuge from the horrors of the Great War in Berlin's most notorious nightclubs.

Robert E. Howard is best known today for his "sword-and-sorcery" stories. But in the early 1930s, he was a legend in boxing circles for his humorously over-the-top adventure stories starring the sailor Steve Costigan, champ of the sea girl - the toughest trading vessel on the seven seas. Steve Costigan is a mariner and amateur boxer, with a heart of gold and a head of solid wood.

Historia
When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Historia
Thomas Ligotti’s debut collection, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, and his second, Grimscribe, permanently inscribed a new name in the pantheon of horror fiction. Influenced by the strange terrors of Lovecraft and Poe and by the brutal absurdity of Kafka, Ligotti eschews cheap, gory thrills for his own brand of horror, which shocks at the deepest, existential, levels.

This Lovecraft classic is a must-have for every fan of classic terror. When a geologist leads an expedition to the Antarctic plateau, his aim is to find rock and plant specimens from deep within the continent. The barren landscape offers no evidence of any life form - until they stumble upon the ruins of a lost civilization. Strange fossils of creatures unknown to man lead the team deeper, where they find carved stones dating back millions of years. But it is their discovery of the terrifying city of the Old Ones that leads them to an encounter with an untold menace.

Historia
The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age.

Historia
Long ago when the Earth was flat, beautiful, indifferent Gods lived in the airy Upperearth realm above; curious, passionate demons lived in the exotic Underearth realm below; and mortals were relegated to exist in the middle. Azhrarn, Lord of the Demons and the Darkness, was the one who ruled the night, and many mortal lives were changed because of his cruel whimsy. And yet, Azhrarn held inside his demon heart a profound mystery which would change the very fabric of the Flat Earth forever.

Winter lasts most of the year at the edge of the Russian wilderness, and in the long nights, Vasilisa and her siblings love to gather by the fire to listen to their nurse’s fairy tales. Above all, Vasya loves the story of Frost, the blue-eyed winter demon. Wise Russians fear him, for he claims unwary souls, and they honor the spirits that protect their homes from evil. Then Vasya’s widowed father brings home a new wife from Moscow. Fiercely devout, Vasya’s stepmother forbids her family from honoring their household spirits, but Vasya fears what this may bring.

He speaks quietly, plainly, even gently . . . carrying us back to the night when he departed human existence as heir--young, romantic, cultivated--to a great Louisiana plantation, and was inducted by the radiant and sinister Lestat into the other, the "endless," life....

In a world where wizards are relegated to ghettos, it is no surprise to see one murdered in the street. But for Stonne Caris, a young warrior monk who sees the killing and gives chase to the culprit, there is nothing ordinary about seeing a murderer disappear into a black, inky portal. The Archmage sends him in search of Antryg Windrose - a half-mad mage who understands the nature of these passages between dimensions.

Anyone familiar with H. P. Lovecraft's work knows of the Necronomicon, the black-magic grimoire he invented as a literary prop in his classic horror stories. There have been several attempts at creating this text, yet none stand up to Lovecraft's own descriptions of the Necronomicon...until now. Fans of Lovecraftian magic and occult fiction will delight in Donald Tyson's Necronomicon, based purely within Lovecraft's own fictional universe, the Cthulhu Mythos.

These thirteen stories are our own lives, inside out. A boy's summer romance doesn't end in that good kind of heartbreak, but in blood. A girl on a fishing trip makes a friend in the woods, except then that friend follows her back to the city. A father hears a voice through his baby monitor that shouldn't be possible, but now he can't stop listening. From prison guards making unholy alliances to snake-oil men in the Old West doling out justice, these stories carve down into the body of the mind, into our most base fears and certainties, and there's no anesthetic.

Ignoring the warning of the villagers that he had just left behind, he decides that he will take the direct route across the moor. A young man of the village, seeing that Kane is heading towards the moor, rushes to beg him to please take the swamp route the next day instead of venturing through the moor at night.

Reminiscent of Dime Novel Fiction
So you're thinking of choosing this audiobook as your monthly pick thinking, (at 23 hours), you'll get more bang for the buck? Maybe, but maybe not. If you're a real connoisseur of the genre, you may consider these stories classics. However, if your interest is in contemporary horror, you may find 23 hours a bit much. I guess for my own tastes, a little of this somewhat dated style of horror is best taken in small doses.

Conan, just like you expect
These aren't brilliant literature, they're pulp stories. If you never read one, they might be better than you think. Taste vary. I'd love to give 5 stars for being classics (in my world) but pulp is necessarily pulpy.

Nice Collection
Stumbled upon Robert Howard through a short story from another collection. Thought it was pretty decent. Was happy to find this title in Audible. Read through the reviews and was shocked that some people were taken back by the 'racist' overtones in some of the stories. As a writer and reader, I know we cannot have thin skins. The world is not a fine a friendly place most of the time. Racist? Don't know. I believe using a racist term in a story does not necessarily make an author an evil person, who lives in fantasy and writes about other people and places (psst, that's what an author does). Context, people. Context. These were written in the 1920s and 1930s. Moving on. These tales are very like H.P. Lovecraft--poetic, good detail, full of monsters and creepy things, but some are not as great as Lovecraft's writing. It's still good and worth it, but some stories don't have that polish to them. I won't point them out, because these are my opinions and I am not going to taint another reader's / listener's experience. Overall, very impressive and exhaustive collection of tales. The narration is great and I am glad I purchased this.

Good Range of Howard's Weird Fiction
A lot of great stories in here with few or no duds among them. You get to hear a lot of stories from the various Howard universes, like Solomon Kane and Conan stories with horrific elements. As well as one-off stories in a theme similar to Lovecraft, but a more action/adventure focus. It was a great performance which always kept me engaged and excited to hear more. Great book, I would recommend it. My only complaint is that the track titles are generic (Track 1, Track 2, etc...) and not the story names.

If you're a fan of Robert Howard, HP Lovecraft, and that generation of writers you'll love these stories. I had forgotten how much mythos lore moves back and forth between the writers of this era.
The stories are a product if their time and there is one story where the N-word got dropped so frequently that I ended up skipping it.
Generally though it's just good, clean, creepy fun.

It's all here
Pretty much everything is here. The "John Kirowan" and "Faring Town" sets, the weird west stories, the Lovecraftian stories, and "a whole lot more". A few mediocre stories are forgivable given such a robust (to say the least) collection. Be sure to check out the Robert E. Howard bibliography page on Wikipedia. It's a great reference to help find the types of stories here that you like.

Very good stuff!
It's hard to write a good horror story without resorting to excessive violence, sexualization and sadism. Howard does an excellent job of this, evoking dread without such measures. The narrator does an exemplary job backing up the writing with suitably mysterious, somber and sinister voices.

Solid pulp fiction stories.
He was a product of his time, so many of his references to African Americans in particular was rough in some of the stories. It was interesting to see how he tried to weave in current anthropological paradigms and he must have read from the relevant literature. It was all very race based at the time but he did his best to weave it into some of his stories to ground them in the science of the day.

Wonderful.
A must have for any horror fanatic. many tales of terror and woe, woven together in masterful fashion. A few unfinished works, but worth the investment.
