Conan, Slaine and Oathbound here.
Conan, because it's Howardian sword 'n sorcery done well. 'Nuff said. . . .actually, not so much 'Howardian' as The Real Thing (tm)!![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Slaine. . . well, it certainly won't appeal to everyone. But if you like Celtic stuff, and especially if you're familiar with the Slaine comics (not a requirement), then I think you'd find this book worth your time and money. I have, anyway.
And Oathbound? Hm, it![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Something I'm particularly stoked about at the moment (that isn't on your list) is A Game of Thrones, by Guardians of Order. Seeing things like Conan on your list leads me to think you might be interested in it. Again, especially if you like the material it's based on (but again, that's not a requirement). Gritty sword 'n not-so-much-sorcery-at-all, set in a well-detailed world. Great stuff!

Couldn't have put it better myself.Kanegrunder said:has a strange, yet familiar feel to it that's worth every penny. It's high-power, but the setting is top notch and one that doesn't get enough credit.
