"“Look,” I said to him, “you get your way to do things from your books. I get my way from mine.”
“I’ve tried to find those books,” he said. “Read a good chunk of a Conan novel while you were gone.”"
If we're talking about works by the original author Robert E. Howard, there was only ever *one* full-length Conan novel: The Hour of the Dragon.

After that last unnecessary filler book, this was a good ending to the series. Though arguably, Book 1 is a perfectly good ending on its own.

"Maybe that was what Conan the Cimmerian had always been about. Perhaps all the lines about the lamentations of women and drinking blood from skulls were meant to persuade people to go home and not try to assault the two-meter-tall fellow with cannonballs for pectorals."
That was only from the movie, and the line was stolen from Ghengis Khan. Conan never said that in the original stories that Spensa supposedly read.
