The Conan Chronicles: Volume 1: The People of the Black Circle (FANTASY MASTERWORKS)

by Robert E Howard (Author)

Synopsis

The definitive collection of Conan stories, featuring the most distinctive and well known fantasy hero of all time Conan the Cimmerian: he rose from boy-thief and mercenary to become king of Aquilonia. Neither supernatural fiends nor demonic sorcery could oppose the barbarian warrior as he wielded his mighty sword and dispatched his enemies to a bloody doom on the battlefields of the legendary Hyborian Age. Collected together for the first time anywhere in the world, in chronological order, are all Robert E. Howard's definitive stories of Conan, exactly as he wrote them, as fresh, atmospheric and vibrant today as when they were first published in the pulp magazines more than sixty years ago.
