<dc:description id="description">A collection of Robert E. Howard’s short stories, including the barbarian adventures of Conan the Cimmerian.</dc:description>
<meta id="long-description" property="se:long-description" refines="#description">
<p>Conan, the Cimmerian barbarian, romps across the pages of <a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/robert-e-howard">Robert <abbr>E.</abbr> Howard’s</a> Hyborian adventures, slicing down enemy after enemy and trying not to fall too hard for a succession of ladies in need of rescue. Although very much a product of the pulp fantasy magazines of the 1930s, Conan has surpassed his contemporaries to become the quintessential barbarian of the fantasy genre: the muscle-bound and instinct-led hero, always willing to fight his way out of any fix.</p>
<p>Collected here are Howard’s public domain short stories, including ten Conan short stories and the history of Hyboria that Howard wrote as a guide for himself to write from. <i>Gods of the North</i> originally was a Conan story, but after being rejected by the first publisher was rewritten slightly to a character called Amra; it was later republished as <i>The Frost-Giant’s Daughter</i> with the name changed back. The stories were serialised (with a couple of exceptions) in <i>Weird Tales</i> magazine between 1925 and 1936, and have gone on to spawn multiple licensed and unlicensed sequels, comics, films and games.</p>
