Thanks for the tip. Lamb sounds fun. I'll try it.
When I say Howard defined the genre, I do not mean he was necessarily the first, but the best. In the same way I feel Raymond Chandler defined his genre, not Dashiel Hamnmit who came first, because Chandler is just so damn good. Incomparable on fact.
