THE ROBERT E. HOWARD GUIDE 
by Patrice Louinet
Coming soon from Skelos Press!

The English translation of the award-winning book that introduced a new generation of French fans to the father of sword and sorcery.

The Robert E. Howard Guide was born out of years of scholarship, but took its final form after answering the same questions from fans over and over again. In many ways, Howard remains a “famous unknown writer," the man who single-handedly defined modern fantasy, but whose life and works are still known mostly filtered through adaptations, pastiches and gross approximations. Because of those specificities, he is more often than not known for what and who he *wasn’t*, for sentences he never wrote, or for characters who bear little resemblance – if any – to his original creations. This, in turn, explains how and why this book was conceived. It is sometimes amusing, sometimes sarcastic, but, built on 30 years of Howard scholarship, it is always insightful. A serious work... that tries not to take itself too seriously.

Fedogan and Bremer may produce REH readings

Fedogan and Bremer is going on an audio binge.

Rodger Gerberding has committed to readings of the weird poetry of HPL's young friend Donald Wandrei (co-founder of Arkham House) poetry. They expect to have this scored by Graham Plowman, and hope to follow with the weird poetry of Clark Ashton Smith, and a selection of Robert E. Howard, read by Donald Sidney-Fryer.
