title: The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian: The Original Adventures of the Greatest Sword and Sorcery Hero of All Time!
author:  Robert E. Howard 
description: Howards writing seems so highly charged that it nearly gives off sparks.<b>Stephen King</b><br /> <b><br /> </b>I adore these books. Howard had a gritty, vibrant stylebroadsword writing that cut its way to the heart, with heroes who are truly larger than life. I heartily recommend them to anyone who loves fantasy.<b>David Gemmell, author of <i>Legend</i> and <i>White Wolf</i><br /></b> <br /> The voice of Robert E. Howard still resonates after decades with readers equal parts ringing steel, thunderous horse hooves, and spattered blood. Far from being a stereotype, his creation of Conan is <i>the</i> high heroic adventurer. His raw muscle and sinews, boiling temper, and lusty <br /> laughs are the gauge by which all modern heroes must be measured.<b>Eric Nyulnd, author of<i>Halo: The Fall of Reach</i> and </b><i><b>Signal to Noise</b><br /><br /> </i>That teller of marvelous tales, Robert Howard, did indeed create a giant [Conan] in whose shadow other hero tales must stand.<b>John Jakes, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of the <i>North and South </i>trilogy</b><br /><br /> For stark, living fear . . . What other writer is even in the running with Robert E. Howard?<b>H. P. Lovecraft</b>

  His enemies had to raise a master of evil from his 
  tomb in order to topple Conan the Conqueror from 
  his war-won throne. For Conan was a lusty warrior 
  from the savage North whom no city-bred swords­
  man could outfight, no scheming courtier could out­
  drink, and no faithless wanton could beguile long 
  enough to betray. But they had not calculated on 
  the greater reign of terror that their resurrected 
  fiend would indict on Conan’s former kingdom.
  Here is an unforgettable adventure in the world 
  of mankind’s past, at the Wood-red dawn of civiliza­
  tion when violence and passions set the rules and 
  witchcraft was a grim realit
