Robert E. Howard is best known for his creation of Conan the Barbarian, but he was also a prolific writer of short stories, especially in the genres of fantasy, horror, and pulp fiction. One of his lesser-known works is the collection "The Iron Man & Other Tales of the Ring".
This collection features three gritty and brutal boxing stories, each centered around a character who embodies the spirit of a true warrior. The stories explore themes of courage, determination, and the physical and psychological toll of fighting.
