This volume contains three of the longer and more detailed of Howard's Conan stories. People of The Black Circle, A witch Shall be Born and The Hour of the Dragon. These stories have matured well and represent Howard at his best and Conan at a more mature and calculating level in his life. ( ) Even though I still prefer the short stories, this was still way ahead of most fantasy in terms of setting the atmosphere and the sheer scale of the world-building. I love Conan as a character anyway but there's also a grim and gritty feel to the whole world including the other characters. They all seem so real that at times you can almost see their shadowy presence looming up before you. Fantastic grim fantasy. Can't wait to get stuck into the 3rd one now. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
