I love when we get deeper insight into Conan's feelings, this, tower of the elephant, Queen of the Black coast and scarlet citadel all have such beautiful descriptions of a seemingly stoic and unfeeling man's hidden depths, Robert E Howard could have been the biggest name in fantasy were writing not such a stifled and commercial industry in his time.
I agree. One thing, the movie industry would have been much better off using the original stories rather than creating new ones for Arnold and company.
This was splendid! The best telling of this tale. Well narrated, good tone, and just the right amount of acting, it is a pure pleasure to listen to. It is also the full story, unabridged, with nothing left out. The narration tells the story exactly as it should be. If you are looking for the very best version of this story, then this is it.
I usually dont like audiobooks because it paints someone elses impression on the story, but i love your conan stories, i only listen to the ones ive read and you nail how i invisioned it perfectly.
@@TheCybrarian Thanks very much. There so much stuff that I never knew even existed. I thought I'd read all the books when I was young but now I realise there's much more stuff out there. Maybe published in magazines. Thanks very much, its all great.
If they ever make a new animated Conan series, they have to get you to do Conan's voiceover. You have the voice I would imagine Conan would have. In the early 90's the Conan Tv show I enjoyed. The actor looked awesome for the tv series. His voice was not good. If they ever do a release of this series for sale, they need to have you do the voice over English dub. Then this tv series would be unbelievable. Thank you. Take care.
thank you so much, we remember the tv show from the 90s, and the old cartoon theres a great youtube vid of someones conan animation, looks very bakshi... th-cam.com/video/BZjDcxdVAIg/w-d-xo.html
Holmes' style is squeaky clean and rhythmic, despite all the adjectives. But I'm yanking my hair if I hear the words "barbaric" or "savage" for the rest of the week.
@@TheCybrarian oh brilliant, thank you very much for the music :) Your voice is absolutely superb for narration by the way, really really enjoying all these stories!
@@TheCybrarian Busted! My2nd choice. My accent “radar” used to be amazing when I was younger. I once had a conversation with a guy who was speaking “British English”. Even fooled my buddy, but I could tell he was German.
Conan and Murillo seem to have an unexpected amount of mutual respect for each other. One of my favorite one off companions of Conan
He's been in a few issues of the comic as well.
Conan no-scoping Nabonidus with the stool remains one of my favourite moments in all of the stories
it's great, n we love the one where he does the same to a hugespider with a treasure chest in tower of the elephant
Extraordinary performance. Perfect voice for Conan. A Hyborian Clint Eastwood.
Had to come up with something, a bad Arnie impression would have felt insulting...though I'm not sure who to.
Thank you very much :)

Clint Eastwood Simply schedule 📅 👌 Casaaundra provided reference 👌 👏 TODAY
When Conan hurled a stool and crushed Nabonidus’ head all I could think of was
“You sly dog, you caught me monologuing!”
ye, Conan got no truck with that Bond villan crap

They need to make some better Conan movies, based more closely on the books. IMHO.
Well that was awesome as usual. "I'd like to loot the house, but.."
Great story, awesome performance! Very well done voice work, I’m excited to listen to more from you. Thanks again
Best Conan Readings on the Internet. I love how you say CONAN! 💪⚔️
Your narrations of the Conan stories are some of my favourite media to listen attentively to. I greatly appreciate your work

I'm really digging conans voice. Just as Kevin Conroy is my go to Batman I'm going to imprint this as my go to conan.
Thank you. Kevin Conroys Batman across from Mark Hamils Joker was always great.
I listen to a lot of audiobooks on TH-cam, and you do a great job, man. Definitely subscribing.
Thank you, it always means a lot, feel free to share :)
I love the musical backgrounds. It reminds me of the old-time radio shows my father got me interested in.
Thanks for the warning, I absolutely hate them.
Excellent work man. You do very well with the accents as well.
I really appreciate your time and dedication to do this
Just a fantastic performance..
Bravo...
These are awesome!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Such a wonderful performance! Thank you
An excellent production, my good sir. Very well done.
I’m back for round two. Respect the classics.
Fantastic work! No one does Conan better! ⚔🔥🪓
1:20 I used to have a Mardi Gras doll very similar to that xD
Thank you for all the great narrations

Thank you very much, that means a lot, we do try and only work off what Howard wrote.
I love the world if conan. Cthulhu, gods and all manner of dark magics and dangerous monsters as well as aliens all of it can be found in this world
These stories are more closer to the truth than any history class. Fr
"Ejaculated in amazement" is a wild line
Your Conan voice is amazing!
More Conan coming this month (March).
@@TheCybrarian Perfect! Can't wait!
@@TheCybrarian yes agree
Fantastic.
Awesome voice acting!
Maybe REH’s best Conan story, fantastic narration 🗡️
Well done.
Great play....!
Not sure if you're receptive to requests, but I'd love to hear Kings of the Night.
don't worry, that is on our "to do" list, it's not next, but it is coming :)
The Cybrarian what’s next as for Conan??
A book I read many years ago Conan the Avenger one of the best, I was hoping I could find it here somewhere. Great stories.
Unfortunately those books were written in the 60s and are still under copyright.
but we are doing more original Robert E. Howard Conan this month (March).
@@TheCybrarian Thanks very much. There so much stuff that I never knew even existed. I thought I'd read all the books when I was young but now I realise there's much more stuff out there. Maybe published in magazines. Thanks very much, its all great.
Magnificent

@@TheCybrarian I just watched this Conan short. Thanks for sharing it. Holy Crom.
Great stuff, something of the minotaur in Thak perhaps?
There is something labirynthine about the house as well, all secret passages and traps.
@@TheCybrarian Definitely.
Thanks for sharing.

Brilliant.
Fantastic stuff mate! Thank you for all these!
Any chance of a link to the intro music?
It's called 'Trailer for a non-existant film' by Soularflair...

Lucky that the betrayer was female. If it had been male Conan would have served that person like he did the thug.
Luckily I read this already, or else this would have spoiled it For me.
In the sewer where she belonged
Are you Irish, Cybrarian?

About 62% Irish and about 90% “British Isles” including a drop of Scottish. Last name is German tho.
