I read the original Conan tales a looooong while ago. Loved them and the de Camp ones, and the Bjorn Nyborg novel too. There are a lot of other writers that have added Conan tales, and I read a few at the time, but most were pretty mediocre. I'd stick with the early ones overall. This one was recommended on Lemmy a day or so back as having a good Lovecraftian vibe which is what attracted me. I'll see how it goes.
I did know about the movie, and did start watching it at one point, but didn't have chance to finish it. Maybe I will.
tbh that movie about R.H. Howard wasn't that good... I quit watching it halfway through. A shame bc it has some pretty good actors, and the subject has promise.
