Man, does it feel good to be back in long-lost Lemuria! I first read these books a few years back, and I've been eager to revisit them ever since.

This is Lin Carter's first novel, and it's a super fun homage to Robert E. Howard's Conan and Edgar Rice

"Grey horse and white. Dark rider and light. There was no knowing where they were bound, except they went together."

So ends C. J. Cherryh's original Morgaine trilogy... and I'll be damned if it isn't my favourite ending I've ever read. Spoilers coming, so be warned!

Where to begin? I adore the worldbuilding. After an unforgiving journey across two harsh worlds, it

Conan the Gladiator by Leonard Carpenter
"Probably the worst Conan story ever written. Either Leonard P. Carpenter knew absolutely nothing about Conan, or he was purposefully trying change (sabotage?) the character in the worst ways. It has been many years since I have read this, but I parti" Read more of this review »

Robert E. Howard
“I have known many gods. He who denies them is as blind as he who trusts them too deeply. I seek not beyond death. It may be the blackness averred by the Nemedian skeptics, or Crom's realm of ice and cloud, or the snowy plains and vaulted halls of the Nordheimer's Valhalla. I know not, nor do I care. Let me live deep while I live; let me know the rich juices of red meat and stinging wine on my palate, the hot embrace of white arms, the mad exultation of battle when the blue blades flame and crimson, and I am content. Let teachers and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion. I know this: if life is illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and am content.”
Robert E. Howard and L. Sprague De Camp, Queen of the Black Coast
