The early Conan stories are some of the best material of the pulp era. This book also includes rough drafts, unfinished tales, extensive notes on the Conan publication history, and gorgeous artwork that perfectly encapsulates the setting and tone of Conan's adventures.

These stories—novellas, actually: each story is about 20,000–25,000 words— were published in various pulp magazines in the mid 1930s, towards the end of Howard's life. There are five in all: 1. The Daughter of Erlik Khan 2. Hawk of the Hills 3. Blood of the Gods 4. Son of the White Wolf...
My friend, Michael, says I read too many girly books. You know lasting literary works by the likes of Jane Austen, Sarah Orne Jewett, Willa Cather, ..., hell even Dorothy Sayers.
