Description
Robert Ervin Howard (1906-1936) was American pulp fiction writer and novelist who wrote in a diverse range of genres. He was particularly influential in the fantasy subgenre which came to be known as "Sword and Sorcery", and is perhaps best remembered for the characters he created in this such as Conan the Barbarian and Kull of Atlantis. His short story, "The Mirrors of Tuzum Thune", features the latter and was first published in the September 1929 issue of Weird Tales. We’re building a digital archive of short fiction forms from the classic, golden age, and pulp fiction era of science fiction and fantasy: a central repository of out-of-print stories of three thousand words or less. You can read Howard's original story on our website, along with the rest of the flash fiction and short stories featured in our podcast. For more information, go to www.cyborgink.com.
