Not to be that guy, but would Howard have wrote the way he did if he wasn't as dark as he was? On a lighter note, when he died he was writing primarily westerns, but did start another horror story before the unfortunate happened, it was finished by a man (who's name escapes me) who primarily wrote adult fiction paperbacks.
Kane's adventures are epic. I picture him on the cover of the 1968 Time Lost edition of Solomon Kane and can't imagine scaling rocks in full Puritan drag would be at all comfortable. Full points for style, however! Fantastically read, as ever, and thank you.
The fact no modern action movie or adventure script writers ever talk about their love for pulp writers like REH is precisely why so much of modern hollywood is pure garbage in the writing department.
I was wondering I'd listen to these more if it was audiobook only no intro no synopsis, if so have them at end. Just an idea I want to hop right into the book. Thank
Awww, I was liking Kane's little speech about their being brother kings, and then REH went and made him inwardly furious over having to use diplomacy with a "savage"!
Do you know, that closing speech was the only real evidence or religiosity which Kane, has ever demonstrated. The Atlantans sounded to be a thoroughly bad lot.
Lovely, glad to hear such wonderful sentiments as, “The stone chamber was huge and majestic, more regal than anything else in the world.” Followed by, “Black people didn’t build this, ew gross. They shouldn’t even be in here” I’m enjoying these Solomon Kane tales until ugly bigotry like that squeezes in the middle suddenly, adding nothing substantial to the story; if anything it’s a detraction, that actually makes Solomon Kane’s character less righteous.
Im am suoer excited for this. I love REH and HPLoves works so much, Thanks Eldritch Archive, these recordingz mean alot. And are a slice of stories that require preservation.

This is my favorite channel for this stuff. Been looking every day for a new story and the Solomon Kane is a favorite 👍
Robert E. Howard should have lived to a very ripe old age! Imagine the stories he could have authored if he had lived a full life span.
Dude, him and Clark Smith and HP Lovecraft were in a league of their own, in my opinion unrivaled until this day.
@@shannonandsheila1403 You're absolutely correct!
@@shannonandsheila1403 absolutely correct. Very few people even come close.

I have nearly all his books. He wote exellent stories.
I've misses these Howard setores.
I read this to my sons as a bedtime story years ago. They were enthralled.
They also enjoyed Death's Black Riders.

THE STORY ABOUT ATLANTIS IS THE BEST PART

Thanks for another great yarn, Connor!
Based and KJV-pilled!

That's a great one!
