The Black Stranger

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

"The Black Stranger" is a fantasy short story by American writer Robert E. Howard, one of his works featuring the sword and sorcery hero Conan the Cimmerian. It was written in the 1930s, but not published in his lifetime. When the original Conan version of his story failed to find a publisher, Howard rewrote "The Black Stranger" into a piratical Terence Vulmea story entitled "Swords of the Red Brotherhood". Howard's original Conan story was changed and rewritten by L. Sprague de Camp and published in Fantasy Magazine in February 1953 (dated March 1953 on the spine). The de Camp version was retitled "The Treasure of Tranicos" for book publication later the same year. Its first hardbound publication was in King Conan by Gnome Press, and its first paperback publication was in Conan the Usurper published by Lancer Books in 1967. It was republished together with an introduction and two non-fiction pieces on the story and on Howard by de Camp with illustrations by Esteban Maroto as The Treasure of Tranicos by Ace Books in 1980. Howard's original story was first published in 1987 in Echoes of Valor and more recently in the collections The Conan Chronicles Volume 2: The Hour of the Dragon (Gollancz, 2001) and Conan of Cimmeria: Volume Three (1935-1936) (Del Rey Books, 2005).
