Howard tells you early on what you're in for, anon, I know the introduction by heart:

>He was a man born out of his time; a strange blending of Puritan and Cavalier, with a touch of the ancient philosopher, and more than a touch of the pagan, though the last assertion would have shocked him unspeakably. An atavist of the days of blind chivalry he was, a knight errant in the somber clothes of the fanatic. A hunger in his soul drove him on and on, an urge to right all wrongs, protect all weaker things, avenge all crimes against right and justice

You're in for something pretty great. Howard is one of the better "Dark Romantic" writers. Pessimistic yet highly sentimental, masculine melodrama full of desperate, quixotic, and militant moods. Solomon Kane is by far my favorite of his heroes.
