"The Pool Of The Black One." It's really cool because the pirate ship actually leaves the map and sails to some alien land. Also I think the particular monsters in this story are fun, they have an alien intelligence that's delightfully sinister.

Also, Conan kills a guy in cold blood in this story, and that's pretty neat.

Same destination, different path; tends to happen when you're penpals. Howard liked the ancient stuff that has uncertain beginnings, letting him fill in the blanks with sinister monsters while contemplating the vastness of time. Lovecraft did the same, but liked to explore the greater implications. I do like Howard's more introspective works, even if he doesn't quite nail the execution, stories like Mirror's of Tuzun Thune and The Striking of the Gong. His horror is entertaining though. My favorite is Valley of the Lost.

I love how Conan just fucking hates wizards, magicians, and sorcerers and the STORIES hate them too. Every last one of them is a scheming, creepy, vicious asshole in all of Howard's stories. You are left at the end of every story completely understanding why Conan hates magic, and frankly, Howard exactly understands the kind of spiteful asshole who would b e driven to study magic in the first place. What if magic was REAL? Who would study it? Not the Chads, it would be the shut-in losers.

He saw a man torn in two pieces, as one might tear a chicken, and the bloody fragments hurled clear across the cavern. The massacre was as short and devastating as the rush of a hurricane. In a burst of red abysmal ferocity it was over, except for one wretch who fled screaming back the way the priests had come, pursued by a swarm of blood-dabbled shapes of horror which reached out their red-smeared hands for him.

I don’t know whether an Oriental smells any different than a nigger when he’s roasting, but I’m willing to bet the aroma of scorching hide would have the same chastening effect on his surviving tribesman.” There is also a conversation between Howard and Novalyne Price that is remembered in her memoir on Howard. Howard tells Novalyne, “[…] I guess you know if a Negro is found on the streets after dark in Coleman, Santa Anna, and several other towns around here, they run him out of town. Chances are they might tar and feather him.” When Novalyne reacted negatively, Howard returned, “Let me tell you something, girl, that you don’t seem to know. Those people come from a different line.
