To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
The original short-stories are awesome.

There are novels too.
I have them all--both original and expanded versions. I also have the Howard letter--books of correspondence between Lovecraft and Howard where they discuss life and the shared mythos of their worlds.
I like Conan a lot, but my favorite Howard character is Solomon Kane. James Purefoy--now on the following--did an amazing job in the relatively low budget "Solomon Kane" movie. The ending kinda sucked, but the movie itself was like the stories writ large on the silver screen, and that's all I can ask from a filmmaker.
The movie's budget was only $40 million and it has a RT score of 89%. It was a victim of poor market. Even as a Howard fanboy I didn't know of it until after its European release.
