The story is a surprisingly lurid tale of loosely historical fiction, based on the account of the semi-legendary female pharaoh Nitocris found in Herodotus. Williams was paid thirty-five dollars for the story by Weird Tales; it was his first piece of stand-alone published fiction. Robert E. Howard's Red Shadows, the story that introduced Solomon Kane, was the cover story. (info from Wikipedia)2 Publishing Oddities in one great package.
