Conan (17 Stories) by Robert E. Howard
Publisher: Mille Tre Verlag 2009
Robert E. Howard's fantasy stories are classics, and among the fantasy heroes Howard has created, Conan is by far the most popular. Much of Conan's popularity, though, comes from movie adaptations, comic books and pastiches -- derivative works that rarely do justice to Howard's unique inventiveness, his keen assimilation of influences from writers such as Edgar Rice Burroughs or Henry Rider Haggard back to Herodotus, and his bold, fast-paced, and expressive literary style.
