Notes

  • An unfinished Howard fragment/synopsis, completed by L. Sprague de Camp for first publication in Conan the Usurper. Registered as Robert E. Howard's original draft plus a named completer's finishing work, not pure Howard, and not registered as Core Canon.

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.
