Steve Harrison's Casebook - Robert E. Howard

Descriere Steve Harrison's Casebook - Robert E. Howard

\n \nPresenting the complete collection of Robert E. Howard's private eye stories starring Steve Harrison! Everything in this volume - stories, drafts, synopses - was pulled directly from Howard's own typescripts, including an early draft of Graveyard Rats, the most terrifying of Harrison's adventures. In these pages you will enter a nightmarish world that blends weird mystery and heart-stopping horror, with Steve Harrison as your guide, a powerful man who is more likely to tear into a fight with a mace or a battle axe than a gun. Harrison has more in common with Howard's sword-swinging Conan than Hammett's Continental Op, but he helps to establish the roots of a noir style that would later find success with Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer.\n \n \n\n \nHarrison might walk the mean streets and back alleys of the 1930s, but he has the soul of a barbaric savage, possessed by the crimson instinct for slaughter.\n
