Howard was born in 1906 - hence the centenary. (If you thought you'd seen more Conan than that - well, you may well have done, but written by other writers after his death, usually adapted from outlines, or converted from stories about other characters.) All this, packed together with some autobiographical stuff, and some fragments completed by other writers after Howard's death, is in this single hardback volume. His most famous single character was Conan.This volume contains all the Conan short stories and the single short novel that Howard completed himself. The most famous writer in this field - the man who created it in a way that his contemporaries never could - was Robert E. There is a sub-genre within Fantasy known as Swords and Sorcery.
