Howard's Weird Fantasy","description":"While Conan Was Sleeping...\u003cp\u003eRobert E. Howard laid much of the groundwork for modern heroic fantasy as creator of the immortal Conan. On an even broader canvas, he was an acclaimed master of weird fantasy in many forms, from vampire, zombie, and ghost tales to thrillers about exotic super-villains; from stories that helped define the legendary Cthulhu Mythos to the exploits of occult detectives; from science fiction to memorable fantasies about the supernatural in vivid settings of the American South and Southwest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Annotated Guide to Robert E.
