Conan es uno de los héroes más grandes jamás el bárbaro cimmerio que con su espada se abre camino a través de las tierras de la Edad Hiboria y que se enfrenta a poderosos hechiceros, a criaturas mortíferas y a ejércitos de ladrones y malvados. En una carrera meteórica que abarcó doce años hasta su trágico suicidio, Robert E. Howard inventó el género que luego se denominó fantasía heroica y del que Conan sigue siendo el máximo exponente. En este volumen, profusamente ilustrado por Mark Schultz, aparecen los primeros siete relatos de Conan en sus versiones originales y en el orden en que Howard los escribió. Además, se incluye material inédito, como la primera versión del relato El fénix en la espada o los mapas que el autor dibujó para crear el mundo de la Edad Hiboria. Una ocasión única para disfrutar del talento de un genio literario cuyo estilo ha sido imitado por muchos, sin que ninguno llegara a igualarlo.

Robert Ervin Howard was an American pulp writer of fantasy, horror, historical adventure, boxing, western, and detective fiction. Howard wrote "over three-hundred stories and seven-hundred poems of raw power and unbridled emotion" and is especially noted for his memorable depictions of "a sombre universe of swashbuckling adventure and darkling horror." He is well known for having created—in the pages of the legendary Depression-era pulp magazine Weird Tales—the character Conan the Cimmerian, a.k.a. Conan the Barbarian, a literary icon whose pop-culture imprint can only be compared to such icons as Tarzan of the Apes, Count Dracula, Sherlock Holmes, and James Bond. —Wikipedia Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.
