Salient Conan,
By Eric Moonchild (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: And Their Memory Was a Bitter Tree: Queen of the Black Coast and Others (Hardcover)
Robert E Howard is the father of Sword and Sorcery genre, and Conan is still vivid and powerful since first published in 1932.
The Frazetta cover paintings for the Lancer paperbacks of the 1960s are published here, though not always associated with the original Lancer stories. These powerful images and superb occult adventures helped launch the 1970s Fantasy & SF wave. The afterword is by HP Lovecraft, with an amateurish and ill informed forward by Arnie Fenner, which has drawn angry criticism from dedicated Howard experts and fans. Eight Conan stories, just less than one third of the stories, are here with Frazetta art. I had to buy this, even though I have the art & stories in other books. It still is a must buy. |
