“A Thunder of Trumpets” by Robert E. Howard and Thurston Torbett appeared in the September 1938 issue of Weird Tales—the advertisement in the preceding issue declared:

Robert E. Howard’s part in the story is the last fiction that flowed from his inspired pen before his untimely death. (Weird Tales Aug 1938).

Todd B. Wick has written an article about this story on his blog ‘On an Underwood no.5‘.
