Conan der Abenteurer

The rich, gritty setting feels like a character itself. I wonder if Howard drew from specific myths or his own experiences when building this universe.

I loved the action scenes but found some of the slower moments made me curious about Howard's balance between story and atmosphere. Was that intentional?

His raw strength and independence seem to set a template for many protagonists today. Do you see his impact in recent fantasy stories or movies?
