Summary
(From the publisher):
In his hugely influential and tempestuous career, Robert E. Howard created the genre that came to be known as sword and sorcery - and brought to life one of fantasy's boldest and most enduring figures: Conan the Cimmerian - reaver, slayer, barbarian, king.
This lavishly illustrated volume gathers together three of Howard's longest and most famous Conan stories - two of them taken directly from Howard's typescript - along with a collection of the author's previously unpublished and rarely seen outlines, notes and drafts. Longtime fans and new readers alike will agree that "The Bloody Crown of Conan" merits a place of honour on every fantasy lover's bookshelf.
