Description:

TALES OF THE COWARD by KEVIN NOEL OLSON... From the author of the "Springheeled Jack" stories, this edition collects all of "The Coward" short stories that appeared in the pulpzines "Secret Sanctum" and "Strange Worlds". It was some of Kevin's earliest work, and some of his best, with a raw intensity that developed throughout the series. It features Malachai Niles and Salamander, two vengeance-driven anti-heroes that search for answers to their strange existence, leaving a trail of blood and bodies, tempered by justice, along the way. It also includes a previously unpublished tale, and all 12 of these adventures are now collected together for the first time, along with the original illustrations by Flatline, another contributor to these early magazines...
