Beyond the Black River by Robert E. Howard

5.0

These Conan stories are perfect when they’re good. So influential, so engrossing. Plenty of action, cool settings. There’s usually some kind of moral or commentary buried under there. It’s a great trip into a fantasy world. I really wish magazines still did this sort of thing.

Tower of the Elephant is still the best one to me, but this ranks a close second.
