The Hall of the Dead
~ Conan ~
Robert E. Howard
L. Sprague de Camp
Conan, now a master thief, has become well known in his adopted home of
Shadizar. He sets foot for the ruins of Larsha with an eye towards
looting
that ancient city, but upon his return to Shadizar, Conan finds that life
in
the Wicked City has become…risky. His reputation has grown large.
Prudence
warrants making way for other cities in other parts of Hyboria.
He travels west, on the Corinthian Road.
Conan The Fearless
Steve Perry
A nameless village at the foot of a pass from Zamora through the Karpash
Mountains is the first look Conan has of Corinthia. As he continues his
trek west, he becomes embroiled in a web of intrigue and magic. Two
wizards
feud—one, an adept of the White Square...the other of the Black.
Conan’s adventure in Corinthia takes him to the city state of
Mornstadinos,
but by tale’s end, Conan is headed west again toward Numalia in ancient
Nemedia.
The God in the Bowl
~ Conan ~
Robert E. Howard
Conan reaches the Nemedian border town of Numalia, where he rests, weary
of
travel and recent adventure. To fill his empty coin purse, he resumes his
trade in thieving.
Conan’s first brush with the machinations of the Stygian sorcerer
Thoth-Amon
sends him fleeing from Numalia, spitting the taste of the supernatural
from
his lips.
Conan The Warlord
Leonard Carpenter
Conan’s flight from Numalia takes him deeper into Nemedia, northeast to
the
capital, Belverus, and beyond into the province of Dinander.
The Cimmerian keeps himself in cups by plying his trade as a thief, but
Nemedian swords lay glove on him again. He is thrown into Dinander’s
dungeons.
But, the Fates have set forth a twisted road that Conan must travel. The
barbar’s time in Dinander’s dungeon leads to time spent at the Baron’s
castle, then to a taste of nobility itself...and another brush with the
vile
armies of the Children of Set.
At tale’s end, Conan sets foot south again, back into the heart of the
Hyborian realms.
Rogues in the House
~ Conan ~
Robert E. Howard
Conan is aged 5 when Nial begins his training with the sword and aged 9
when
the Vanir raiders strike his clan’s steading, and it is four winters that
the mighty Cimmerian spends as a slave and pit fighter. He takes part in
the Sack of Venarium before he has seen 15 winters.
Most of what has been recorded here takes place over the last five years
of
the barbarian’s life, and as Conan now journeys south from ancient
Nemedia,
he has seen 19 seasons.
His route south and east from Nemedia brings him through a city-state in
Corinthia, where misadventure lands him in a dungeon once again.
Assassination, political intrigue, and an encounter with a product of the
time when the oceans drank Atlantis follow, but it is not long before
Conan
p***** through Zamora, the Kezankians and the desert steppes to visit the
shores of the Vilayet Sea.
Conan The Victorious
Robert Jordan
Sultanapur is one of the largest cities on the Vilayet Sea, a thriving
trading community in Turan, thronged with peoples from far away lands as
well as native Turanians. It is here that Conan has come, having
reacquainted himself with a companion from his days as a thief in
Shadizar,
the one-eyed bandit Hordo.
Adventure brooks as Conan tries his hand at a somewhat new profession,
that
of smuggling, and this tale takes him across the Vilayet and into the
western regions of Vendhya.
The return to Sultanapur proves to be prosperous, for a while, but a quick
escape from the city becomes necessary lest Conan forfeit his head to the
headman’s axe after a small matter of assorted offenses against the King’s
peace.
South, Conan rides, along the length of the Vilayet Sea to the ivory domed
city of Aghrapur, Turan’s capital.
NOTE: Conan's early life finds the Cimmerian struck with wanderlust. Far
are his travels. Long are his journeys. (Detailed in the first
chronicle,
CONAN THE CIMMERIAN.)
As Conan becomes older, he focuses his talents on becoming a thief, before
a
short stint as a smuggler. (Detailed in this chronicle, CONAN THE THIEF.)
The next chronicle follows Conan as he changes his trade, becoming a paid
warrior, in service to a king.
