description: "Howard was the Thomas Wolfe of fantasy, and his Conan tales seem to almost fall over themselves in their need to get out. Howard's writing seems so highly charged with energy that it nearly gives off sparks."-Stephen King  		Conan the Barbarian-pirate, mercenary, outlaw-spent his life wandering the world of the legendary Hyborian Age. As vibrant and atmospheric as when they originally appeared, here are Robert E. Howard's definitive stories of Conan.  		Between 1932 and 1935, Robert E. Howard wrote twenty-one sword-and-sorcery adventure stories featuring Conan the Cimmerian. Howard committed suicide, at the age of thirty, in 1936.
