About this listen

From Robert E. Howard's fertile imagination sprang some of fiction's greatest heroes, including Conan the Cimmerian, King Kull, and Solomon Kane. But of all Howard's characters, none embodied his creator's brooding temperament more than Bran Mak Morn, the last king of a doomed race.

In ages past, the Picts ruled all of Europe. But the descendants of those proud conquerors have sunk into barbarism...all save one: Bran Mak Morn, whose bloodline remains unbroken. Threatened by the Celts and the Romans, the Pictish tribes rally under his banner to fight for their very survival, while Bran fights to restore the glory of his race. This collection gathers together all of Howard's published stories featuring Bran Mak Morn: "Men of the Shadows", "Kings of the Night", "A Song of the Race", "Worms of the Earth", "The Dark Man", and "The Lost Race".

an amazing collection of Robert E Howard's work regarding this character and the creativity that went into several of these stories is amazing. seen a gathering of established characters truly had to inspire what came later in the Marvel and DC Comic era.

There are of course pros and cons to any work of art and Howard’s work is no different. I enjoy his battle scenes with their lively action and brute use of words describing and taking me to those places. I did notice the ending of this book was quite repetitive in telling us who Howard was as a man, I felt this could have shorter and more to the point. Over all ENJOYED this!

Excellent

There are a few great stories in this collection, but there is some repetition with different versions of the same stories.

May not be as good as the Conan stories but they are pure Howard. That said they are a must listen and invited. The first story takes a while to get going but the others are good. I was l could get the Kull stories and El Borak. But don't carry a card no more. But I really enjoy the Howard stories I have on Audible I chairish them! I would encourage you all sword and sorcery fans to give it a listen or read the book. Remember,its stories to entertain and enjoy. Ricknurn.rn.rn@gmail.com

I wasn't aware this was a collection, thought it was one continuous story. I wasn't disappointed that it was many stories. they were all good. though one was repeated.

Didn’t realize this was all of Bran Mak Morn.
Very interesting.
Ran the gamut of good to almost bad.
Didn’t realize we had those letters at the end either.

This is just alright for me. Yes it is Howard and therefore the writing is on the good side, and yes the stories are very fantastical, which I love, but the character(s) do nothing for me. There's not enough pop like with Conan or with his Horror stories. So, I liked it, but not enough to ever go back to it.

And the reader is unable to pronounce the word Demonic correctly.

Just Okay

I recently began listening to Robert E. Howard’s stories and find them fascinating. He appears to be one of the first “world builders” alongside HP Lovecraft. This book not only provides Howard’s stories, but explanations as to their origins and meaning from Howard’s life. This book also provides comprehensive explanation of Howard’s other works and characters and how they relate to Bran Mak Morn. I highly recommend this book.

Fascinating

The entire first chapter is about the 'momentous history of the author's books' narrated as though it were Gibbons' "Decline and Fall." Ridiculous. He was a fantasy writer. I didn't make it past the first chapter.

Supercilious
