Synopsis "The Lost Valley of Iskander"

In Francis Xavier Gordon, the creator of Conan the Barbarian, Dennis Dorgan, Kull, Sailor Steve Costigan and Breckenridge Elkins has produced one of his most colorful and unforgettable characters of fiction. Francis X. Gordon is an American adventurer from Texas transplanted to Afghanistan and other mysterious and remote areas. His uncanny ability with the gun, the knife, and the sword help earn for him the legendary title, El Borak. In this book will be found three novels about this great fighting Irishman: "The Daughter of Erlik Khan," "Hawk of the Hills," and "The Lost Valley of Iskander." This last title was originally titled "Swords of the Hills" and was discovered long after Howard's death as an unpublished manuscript. All of these novels appear for the first time in book form in this volume. Howard described Francis X. Gordon in one of his novels as "Compactly built, with sun-darkened skin, wearing Afghan garments. His hair was straight and black as an Indian's, and his eyes are as black as his hair. His name was woven in the tales told to all the caravanserais and bazaars from Teheran to Bombay." Years spent in the Middle East and the Orient had given Gordon the ability to pass himself for a native anywhere. Some of Howard's very best writing is found in the Francis X. Gordon series. FAX Collector's Editions considers it an honor to bring these stories for the first time to the great audience of Howard fans and collectors. This deluxe limited edition contains scores of black and white illustrations, color plates, illustrated endpapers and a full-color jacket by Michael Kaluta.
