Book description

Robert E. Howard - creator of some of the greatest worlds of heroic fantasy and nightmare horror ever conceived by the mind of man

H.P. Lovecraft described Howard as a master of description of vast megalithic cities of the elder world, around whose dark towers and labyrinthine nether vaults lingers an aura of pre-human fear and necromancy which no other writer could duplicate.

In the three volumes of Skull-Face Omnibus published by Panther Books you will find a nerve-tautening gallery of tales of superhuman savagery and supernatural evil, Journey back into long-lost eons of time and across frontiers of the occult with one of the greatest masters of the century, Robert E. Howard.

A classic collection of tales from the Golden Age of fantasy and horror

"Foreword" by August Derleth

"Which Will Scarcely Be Understood" (poem)
