Solomon Kane was the original title Howard had for this story, but it was changed to “Red Shadows” when it was published. It tells a tale of wide scope, one which takes place over many years and in many countries. It’s a tale of unrelenting dogged persistence as Kane spends years of his life seeking to avenge the death of a complete stranger.
