Set in the mythical Hyborian Age, a mysterious island and a magical pool play central roles in the Conan series tale. The protagonist, Conan, embodies the themes of adventure and exploration, reflecting Robert E. Howard's fascination with the violent myths of the Old South. Howard, who began writing seriously in his teens, is credited with creating the 'sword and sorcery' genre through his iconic character, Conan the Cimmerian.
