Three-Bladed Doom is an El Borak short story by Robert E. Howard. It was not published within Howard's liftime.
There are two different versions of this story. The first is shorter (24,000 words) than the second (42,000) words. The short version was printed first, in issue #4 of the magazine REH Lone Star Fictioneer (Spring 1976).[1]. The long version was printed the following year in the Zebra paperback Three-Bladed Doom (July 1977).[1] Both of these versions, however, had their beginning and ending substantially re-written by Byron Roark, editor of REH Lone Star Fictioneer.
