Ghor, Kin-Slayer

The Saga of Genseric's Fifth-Born Son

1st edition
  • 1 Want to read

Robert E. Howard, the famed fantasy author, wrote the first chapter of an unfinished novel which was found among his files after his death. The novel was completed by sixteen other authors. Van Vogt contributed the tenth chapter, entitled "The Gods Defied." Only chapters 1-12 appeared in a serialized form in Jonathan Bacon's fanzine, Fantasy Crossroads, from 1977 to 1979 (issues #10/11 - #15). Chapters 13-17 were about to be published when Fantasy Crossroads folded, and these last five chapters were thought to be lost forever. A complete manuscript was recently found in the possession of Glenn Lord, making it possible for Necronomicon Press to publish the novel in its entirety.
