I understand the priorities....... A green christmas feels funny to me but that is always the case in NZ i take it. I can picture you, all wedding stress blown over, christmas things over and done with relaxing in a chair, or perhaps under the blue sky, slowly sinking down in the worlds of the Bazaar..... Sounds nice, doesnt it??Not yet, I've held it in my hands though!
With the wedding almost here I've had other priorities for my cash, but will definitely be purchasing this before the end of the year, I will make it my Christmas treat.

My son wanted me to ask you about what old Conan's are the best to read. He gets a lot of sh*t for liking these I guess. And he says he sees such horrible reviews, so he's not sure what's good.Re-reading a little Robert E. Howard Conan these last couple days. Always been a Conan freak, ever since childhood, so it's taken some time before I could peel away the media's skewed conception of the Barbarian (the 'roided-out brute in fur britches--Tarzan with a sword, basically) and enjoy the original tales from a fresh, 1930s perspective. Going into a story like A Witch Shall Be Born without the preconceived baggage of the movies, comics, and pastiches helps to appreciate just how groundbreaking ol Two-Gun Bob really was. Compared to other 'weird fiction' of the early thirties, Howard's sword and sorcery yarns are like finding rare cuts of prime rib at a salad bar.
Imagine a Conan movie made in the 1930s! Think we'll need a beefed-up Errol Flynn as the Cimmerian, maybe a scantily clad Jean Harlow slave girl, Marlene Dietrich as an evil queen, oh! And let's see Basil Rathbone as the sorcerer Thoth Amon. Howard Hawks at the helm, we can't miss.
