Much like Leigh Brackett, I'm disappointed to find out that these three (or two and a half) stories are all that we get of Agnes. I appreciate her rage, her refusal to submit, and her sheer bloody-mindedness.
The fragments tacked on at the end threw me a bit, being unfinished and entirely unrelated, but they are fun snippets of Howard prose (shading towards racism, unfortunately, with all the "Aryan destiny" and inherent racial enmities).
A good read for Howard fans, especially women, giving us a chance to see a different hand holding the sword.
