Review Quotes: "Howard's writing seems so highly charged that it nearly gives off sparks."--Stephen King
"I adore these books. Howard had a gritty, vibrant style-broadsword writing that cut its way to the heart, with heroes who are truly larger than life. I heartily recommend them to anyone who loves fantasy."--David Gemmell, author of Legend and White Wolf
"The voice of Robert E. Howard still resonates after decades with readers- equal parts ringing steel, thunderous horse hooves, and spattered blood. Far from being a stereotype, his creation of Conan is the high heroic adventurer. His raw muscle and sinews, boiling temper, and lusty
laughs are the gauge by which all modern heroes must be measured."--Eric Nyulnd, author of Halo: The Fall of Reach and Signal to Noise
