A Gent from Bear Creek (1975)

A Gent from Bear Creek was first published by Herberg Jenkins in England, 1937 after Howard’s death. This version is published by Zebra and is basically the same as the Donald M. Grant also from 1975 and unfortunately has a few errors and editorial changes, including removal of all italics.

The title of both an original short story, as well as a novel was created by combining several previous short stories with some new material; the previously published short stories were altered a little to create chapters with a continuous storyline, and new material was added as additional chapters.

The Sowers of the Thunder

The Zebra edition. The Sowers of the Thunder is a historical fiction short story by American writer Robert E. Howard, originally published in Oriental Stories, Winter 1932. It takes place in Outremer (the Crusader states) in the time of General Baibars and deals with the General’s friendly/adversarial relationship with Cahal Ruadh O’Donnell, an Irish Crusader with a troubled past cut in the Howardian mold. Both the Siege of Jerusalem (1244) and the Battle of La Forbie feature in the plot.
