Wow!
Great to see Howard coming out of his earlier flaws. Conan is accompanied by two interesting characters who aren't bad stereotypes (as was previously often the case).
It's also great to see these other characters shine for once, and having them rely on each other in interesting ways.
These stories were written back when there wasn't a consensus on how to write fantasy, so it's nice to see Howard discovering.
