It’s soooooo beautiful! I’ve been wanting to pick that one up so many times and whenever I find it online it’s just too much. I find it eventually. It’s kind of like a holy grail version. Lol. Great video man. Now I gotta go watch the Lin Carter one lol
Already have the complete Conan in the DelRey paperbacks from the early 2000s, but may need to get this. Nice looking volume. Will be spending next weekend in Cross Plains, Texas celebrating Howard an his Annual festival. Mr. Roy Thomas will be there!
I am now lusting after that book, Steve. Also, haven't seen Mamoa's version of Conan, but I would've loved to have seen a film franchise built around his portrayal of Khal Drogo from the Game of Thrones TV series.
I don’t think Conan has been given the respect in popular culture that he deserves. John Milius’s film is awesome (one of my favorites) but it’s about a Conan who doesn’t yet know anything about the world. The Destroyer is laughably bad. Jason Momoa made an excellent Conan but I don’t think the movie did him justice. I like the idea of just having different actors play him at different points in his life.
Loved the original conan movie, the sequel was awful, but I would have loved seeing an older conan, I've downloaded these books onto my kindle, perhaps it's time I finally read them?.. & not a Stephen King fan?
This is a fantastic video! You know I love Robert E. Howard and Conan! Wonderful discussion of a great character and a great book. Thanks!
Conan the Librarian ...
This libray tour of doom is a real treat!

I just read through these last year for the first time. So much fun.

I've wanted that edition of Conan, but I have the complete Del Rey set.
