Search Worlds Without End

Aquilonia, once the proudest land in all of Hyboria, has fallen under the tyrannical reign of a mad king. As his brutal insanity sweeps the land, only one man dares stand against him: Conan the barbarian.

Conan becomes the leader of an army of rebels, brave warriors who thought their battles would be fought with spear and sword, axe and dagger. In this they were mistaken, for their greatest foe is not the army of Aquilonia, but the vile sorcerer Thulandra Thuu.

Dark clouds loom ahead for the people of Aquilonia, and only Conan can save them.

The iconic hero of the Hyborian Age returns in this volume of classic fantasy adventure stories.

Sometime after the fall of Atlantis, a great hero was born on a battlefield, destined to defend his people against angry gods and merciless demons. His name was Conan, and his exploits are legend.

This volume collects eight classic Conan stories and an essay on the work of Conan creator Robert E. Howard. These stories from renowned fantasy author L. Sprague de Camp, and co-written with Lin Carter and Bjorn Nyberg, relaunched Conan as a popular hero in the 1970s.
