			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Age of Conan community news feed has a piece up on Robert E. Howard, creator of Conan and the world of Hyboria, who died 73 years ago. They call him &#8220;a true Teller of Tales&#8221; which is true. He was in fact one of the creator of the fantasy genre <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_and_Sorcery">sword and sorcery</a>, with his Salomon Kane and King Kull stories.</p>
<p>Conan entered later. This from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_E._Howard">the Wikipedia page</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Conan first appeared in Weird Tales in December 1932&#8217;s &#8220;The Phoenix on the Sword&#8221;, and was such a hit that Howard was able to place seventeen more Conan stories in the magazine between 1933 and 1936. The character had a wide and enduring influence among other WT writers, including C. L. Moore and Fritz Leiber, and over the ensuing decades the genre of Sword and Sorcery grew up around Howard&#8217;s masterwork, with dozens of practitioners evoking Howard&#8217;s creation to one degree or another.</p></blockquote>
<p>True lovers of Conan and his world should definitely find Howard&#8217;s stories. There are collections available.</p>
