Robert E. Howard was the 'founding father' of the 'sword-and-sorcery' subgenre - and Conan the Cimmerian is the archetypal hero of that genre. This introduction gives a little of the backstory of how Howard developed this fascinating literary product, and gives a short biography of the author himself. (28 minutes)
