Seems to me the Del Rey books have Conan in the published order. As a character this just makes sense -- in "The God of the Bowl" Conan sees a human head on a snake's body, freaks out and runs away. He sees and confronts lots worse. Is this still Conan of Cimeria or is it some other manifestation? I don't know, but even though Howard kept notes (one of the few who did) he never said (though I'm sure he was supple about it). It had to make sense at the time of writing, and that was good enough for Howard (and evidently Weird Tales).
I haven't read HEROES IN THE WIND yet, so who knows? Maybe Penguin "fixes" what Del Rey and Robert E. Howard "broke".
Whisky! Welcome back to the comments section sir. I've missed you.
I am well overdue to revisit these Conan stories. Unfortunately, living out in Vietnam, I don't have access to them in my local bookstores. But I regret not having stuck with them back in 2006. I really should read the whole sweep of them sometime.
And you're right. In the order the order they were written is probably the best way to do it. I don't know why I complained about that at the time.
BTW thanks to you I watched all of Season 3 and Season 4 of ST: Enterprise (the Manny Coto Years). Wow, were they good! Better than TOS desrved, although TOS will always have a place in my heart (it's the zipper-boots and View-Master reels -- boy, did I save!).
To be fair, I was also helped along by this list
Ah, you must be referring to my old post Star Trek: Enterprise—Not that Bad Actually
. I'm glad the recommendation hit (helped by Gizmodo). To this day, I still haven't seen the first 3 seasons. But I really enjoyed that 4th season. It was much better than I expected it would be.
One of these days, I hope to do a complete Star Trek watch through. But that will have to wait until the kids are a bit older. Not to mention, until I have access to all the episodes. (No DVD player or streaming service access at the moment, unfortunately.)
