  <description>&lt;p&gt;As an homage to the spooky fiction that laid the groundwork for the genre work that Your Generals enjoy these days, this week they take a look back to the pulp fiction of the early 1900s. Particularly they have zeroed in on a few stories from three celebrated authors, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard, and H. P. Lovecraft. The stories that Zac and Tyler will talk about today are "The Return of the Sorceror", "The Tower of the Elephant", and "The Rats in the Walls" respectively. Come join in as they take a trip back and see how weird things got when three masters of the craft ply their trade. Also with news from The Witcher, Ms. Marvel, and more!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Zac's Recommendation: &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worms_of_the_Earth" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Worms of the Earth&lt;/a&gt; by Robert E. Howard and &lt;a href="http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks06/0607311h.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Kings of the Night&lt;/a&gt; by Robert E. Howard&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tyler's Recommendation: &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_Kane_(film)" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Solomon Kane&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
