A Little Bronze Book of Weird Tales by Robert E. Howard

A Little Bronze Book of Weird Tales

Borderlands Press $32.50 Sold Out

This one sold out fast. You pretty much need to preorder the Little Books from Borderlands Press if you want to get one. Even then, it’s not a guarantee. I missed the Joe Hill volume because I waited until the evening to preorder.

But I digress.

Borderlands Press has been publishing these small collections for quite a while. I believe they are on the  fourth series of them. They are currently $32.50 and run about 130 pages.  They are nice little hardbacks and are signed and numbered.

Their current series is looking at classic authors of the weird and fantastic. Previous authors include Arthur Machen, Henry S. Whitehead, Ambrose Bierce, and J. Sheridan LeFanu. I’m enjoying the heck out of them.

I don’t know about the current series, but at least some of the older titles are available in ebook for only a few bucks if  you don’t want to shell out the cash for the print edition.

So, what does the Robert E. Howard volume look like? Continue reading

In addition to an introduction by Stephen Jones, there are four poems, three stories, and a brief, never published article. Continue reading
