In a meteoric career that covered only a dozen years, Robert E. Howard defined the sword and sorcery genre. In doing so, he brought to life the archetypal adventurer known to millions around the world as Conan the barbarian.



This collection features Howard at his finest and Conan at his most savage. Truly heroic fantasy at its best, this volume contains 'The Servants of Bit-Yakin,' 'Beyond the Black River,' 'The Black Stranger,' 'The Man-Eaters of Zamboula,' and 'Red Nails,' which is perhaps Conan's most famous adventure.
