Conan of Cimmeria is a 1969 collection of six fantasy short stories written by Robert E. Howard, L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter featuring Howard's seminal sword and sorcery hero Conan the Barbarian. Most of the stories were originally published in various fantasy magazines. The book has been reprinted a number of times since by various publishers, and has also been translated into German, Japanese, Spanish, Dutch, and Italian. It was later gathered together with Conan and Conan the Freebooter into the omnibus collection The Conan Chronicles (1989).

[edit] Plot summary

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

In a number of episodes Conan, now in his mid- to late-twenties, is followed from the end of his career as a soldier for King Yildiz of Turan to his initial adventures in the black kingdoms of Kush. In between he visits his native Cimmeria and gets his first taste of life as a sea-rover as the right hand man of the she-pirate Belit.

Chronologically, the six short stories collected as Conan of Cimmeria fall between Conan and Conan the Freebooter.
