The Hour of the Dragon

The Hyborian Age: a time of legends. Conan the Cimmerian rose from boy-thief and mercenary to become king of Aquilonia. Wielding his mighty sword, nothing could stand in the way of the barbarian warrior, neither supernatural fiends nor demonic sorcery.

Collected together for the first time in chronological order are all Robert E. Howard's definitive stories of Conan, exactly as he wrote them, as fresh, atmospheric and vibrant today as when they were first published in the pulp magazines more than sixty years ago.
