Jonathan Maberry’s Heroic Legends entry is Solomon Kane: The Hound of God, a 2023 novella featuring the Puritan adventurer created by Robert E. Howard. Solomon Kane is one of Howard’s most enduring characters, a grim 16th-century wanderer who travels the world fighting supernatural evil with sword, pistol, and unwavering faith.
Maberry, who has worked with several licensed properties throughout his career, brings his horror-writing background to Kane’s world. The Hound of God fits into the Heroic Legends anthology series, which invites modern authors to write new stories set in classic pulp fiction universes. For readers who know Solomon Kane from Howard’s original stories or from other adaptations, this novella offers a fresh take from a writer whose sensibilities are well matched to the character’s dark adventures.
