Gods of the North

The frozen north has never felt more lethal. Robert E. Howard drops you into a blood-soaked snowfield where a lone barbarian survivor staggers through the aftermath of slaughter, his wounds still weeping, his enemies dead around him. Then comes the woman, unnaturally beautiful, impossibly pale, walking through the deathscape as though it were a garden. She is Atali, daughter of the frost giants, and her smile is a promise wrapped in a grave. What follows is an ancient dance of predator and prey. The barbarian knows the stories; he knows what she does to men who follow her into the white void. He follows anyway. The cold is a living thing, the giants are real, and death wears the face of every temptress who ever led a warrior to ruin. Howard writes with the blood-heat of a forge, crafting pulp fantasy that still cuts like a blade eight decades later. This is for readers who want their myths raw, their heroes bloody, and their endings shadowed by the oldest truth: some doors, once opened, only lead to frost and forgetting.
