作者简介
Robert Ervin Howard (1906–1936) was a seminal figure in the genre of sword and sorcery, as well as an innovator in the field of action-packed pulp fiction. Born and raised in Texas, Howard spent his life immersed in literature, drawing from the eclectic history and rugged landscapes around him to craft his tales. With a broad array of stories ranging from fantasy to historical adventure, Howard is most famously known for creating the character Conan the Barbarian, whose exploits were serialized in 'Weird Tales' magazine and have subsequently been collected into numerous volumes such as 'The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian'. Howard had the ability to transport readers to the far-flung corners of his imagination, replete with dark sorcery, epic battles, and mythic heroes. The alleged book 'Vikings of Gloves', however, does not appear to be a recognized work within Howard's bibliography and thus may call for further investigation for its validity. His literary style is characterized by vivid descriptions, a brisk pace, and an unyielding intensity that mirrored his own troubled life, leading to his premature death at the age of thirty by suicide. Howard's legacy endures through the countless adaptations of his work and the inspiration he has provided to generations of fantasy writers.
