"Did you deem yourself strong, because you were able to twist the heads off civilized folk, poor weaklings with muscles like rotten string? Hell! Break the neck of a wild Cimmerian bull before you call yourself strong. I did that, before I was a full-grown man...!" Just awesome with that loud snap in the audio. Thanks again for these. They sure make my morning walks go by. Hope all is well.🍻
Fantastic performance by everyone involved. I particularly enjoyed chapter 3. Been listening to your productions for a couple of months, and I must say that everyone that I have been listening to have been fully immersive
Thank you, it took us a little time to find our feet at the start, but we've even gone back and remastered some of our older work (links always in the descriptions).
so Conan now has a ring that can control the opposite sex? wonder if Robert E Howard ever had plans to carry this over into another story... Knowing Conan he would have sold it before ever having use for it. He'd probably say something cool like "the day i need some fancy baubble to control a women is the day i throw down my sword and become a eunuch"
Keep up the stunning work with this Conan the Barbarian stories! They were a great comfort and escapism for me when I was going through a difficult time in my personal life and they're a huge inspiration for my own stories.
"a suple young 🌱 woman ♀️👠🧜naked as the day she was born" good God, so descriptive, "black 🖤 dog 🐶🐕 of hell 🔥" man o man, this is good stuff, keep up the good 👍😊 work, it's the bomb 💣. I love it. Chicago Illinois rocks with the Cyberian
Being a product of my time I find it a bit jarring at times how women are depicted in these tales, but theyre no less soothing and fascinating portals to another world. Match that with the amazing production value of these projects of yours, and your crunchy voice, it does the original material justice.
thank u, we're always trying to improve our production it's odd that Hyborea treats everyone harshly, it's a savage place, but we seem to have baised sympathies for example - many mention the depiction of women in their nudity, even though men are naked in REH more-often than women, which doesn't get mentioned
I have listened to a few renditions of Conan, including Audible, nome comes even close the Cybrariam's one. I am about to release a heavy metal album with 4 tracks inspired by Conan, having the Cybrarian recite a passage on it would be extraordinary.
This was the first Conan audio story I heard from Livibox. Your version is much better with the various accents and sounds effects. (Although I wish you would had included the drums beats) And it was great to hear Shazzreea again with her welcome emotions and accent. (Nice shift in voice tone at the end, which make sense.) Minor error at the end. I think I heard 'even with his throat slit' instead of 'even with his tongue slit' But other than that great work, as usual. Hope you do Red Nails (Howard's final complete Conan story) and have Shazreea do Valaria.
@@TheCybrarian Sorry about that. I just happened to be awake at midnight where I'm at and realized it was the day here, so I figured to mark it for the future times I'll watch this and the other Conan stories you've read on this platform ❤
This is pretty good. The female voice is a bit too hysterical for me. But overall it's a nice treatment. I hope you guys do "A Witch Shall Be Born" or "Black Colossus", or "Shadows In the Moonlight" soon.
Modern Audiences reacting to a woman saying "May Set have Mercy on me." "In the name of Set!": What is she talking about!? Doesn't she know that Set is a Horrific irredeemable Monster!? Actual fact: Set was once the Champion protector of the Sun God, and was co-identified with the Syrian War-god Reshef. He cared for the common people and exorcised demons. There was also a lesser known story were Set fell in love with a commoner woman and her victim son wishing to aid them not knowing She was actually Isis in Disguise. (Sorry Riordan fans.) Note: I know Robert E Howard made Him a Giant black Snake monster but that's based on the misconception that Set and Aphosis are the Same being. Still an Interesting story though!
Help me, I found your channel recently. which story would you recomend to start with to really hook me. or do i just take the plunge and start with whatever?
We have playlists, try our Mature fiction or Conan playlists (though you may want to skip 'The Hyborian Age' background of the world if you want to jump straight into the action)...

Thank you so much, it always means a lot to us. We'd really love to do hour of the dragon, but it'd be a massive undertaking, it runs over 8 hours long so we'd either need a big time out just to do it or kickstarter/patreon funding or something, but we'll get there eventually.
Editing the stories for modern sensibilities would merely make them inauthentic and ruin them. And no one is forced to read or listen to them at gun or knife point.

It's a great quote.
(the neck snap is actually, knuckles cracking close to mic n mixed a little, haha)
The more I listen to your readings the more I think this is how Howard read them in his mind's voice as he wrote. An exquisite experience as ever!
have you heard the foreword of this video...?
ua-cam.com/video/9G86WohAd_4/v-deo.html
The best readings of Conan are here. Thanks, again!
One of my favorite Howard and Conan stories. Aram Baksh gets what he deserves in the end.
Beautifully done. Howard would have been proud 🙏
Some craziness to get this one out but the premier went great in the end. Feel free to check the live chat. Thanks to all who attended.
A strangle contest is probably the most alpha thing I ever heard off
By Crom, Mitra and Set! Never before in all the Ages have I been closer to actually hearing the Cimmerian speak. The Gods are surely pleased by this!
Man, what a good ending. This channel is awesome.
Once again, the Cybrarian brings the world of Hyboria to life as no one else can. Wonderfully done!
One the best Conan stories of all time.
Great story; excellent production Cybrarian. Thank you.
Our pleasure!
Thank you for heart and wonderful presentation professionally done!
I love this channel so much, the best reading of Conan there is.
The two of them choking eachother was nuts.
Excellent! Thank you!
Thanks for this. Slaying Balteor is a favorite Howard scene of mine.
Yeah, we enjoyed it, it feels really personal.
Ah, a new Conan audiobook! Just in time
Outstanding! As noted by the other comments, Cybrarian does justice to the readings of Howard like no one else. Thank you!

a totally plausable theory, shame we never got more stories
best Conan audiobooks, thank you!!
Another excellent narration! Can't wait for the next.
Excellent!
I can't wait to hear more episodes!
Lots more here, enjoy.
Glad I found this channel! Very good.
Keep up the stunning work with this Conan the Barbarian stories! They were a great comfort and escapism for me when I was going through a difficult time in my personal life and they're a huge inspiration for my own stories.

Loving it already!
So glad you're back. Loved this.
Awesome thanks for the great work Sir
I can't believe the views to likes and comment ratio. People can be such ingrates. Fine work, and many thanks.
Thanks for your like and comment :)

Incredibly done! The voices of the characters are awesome and the girl's voice is so convincing and perfect! Who is the voice actress? She is awesome!
Thank you, the voice is from our guest VO artist Shareea who will also be performing in our next feature story 'Black Colossus'

Yeah thats very true! Hadnt thought about that.

@@TheCybrarian cheers! I sent a mail to the hotmail address listed. Thanks again
@@JoeMinichino thanks, we got that and will reply soon
A great production . Thanks.
And all this in night shift's work! Conan really is an overachiever 😁
Excellent!
Wonderfull! It's been years since I read these and your narration is a real delight.
By Crom I hope you have a new conan one coming out these good, you helped me get back at wrightin my stories
Amazing as always!

But other than that great work, as usual.
Hope you do Red Nails (Howard's final complete Conan story) and have Shazreea do Valaria.
We did put in drum beats, but they may have been a bit quiet in the background.
Watching this on 22 January 2023.
Happy birthday, Robert E. Howard.
⚔⚔⚔
confused for a sec, but then remembered timezones, we still have about 4 hours to wait
@@TheCybrarian Sorry about that. I just happened to be awake at midnight where I'm at and realized it was the day here, so I figured to mark it for the future times I'll watch this and the other Conan stories you've read on this platform ❤
Another awesome audiobook, keep up the good work!
Thank You.for another superior effort. You did justice to one of REH's better stories.
Well done, definitely enjoyed this! You have a new fan!
Great stuff, as always!
This is pretty good. The female voice is a bit too hysterical for me. But overall it's a nice treatment.
I hope you guys do "A Witch Shall Be Born" or "Black Colossus", or "Shadows In the Moonlight" soon.
bloody good
Always a fan of R.E.H. this is fantastic. A new subscriber.
Oh yea!
5:11 That is some of the most out of pocket shit Ive ever heard. This is definitely a product of its time.
Crom heard my words
You guys rule.
Numerian Dogs!
Crownan when high 😊
prob more drunk
thing he only gets drugged on lotus and never enjoys it

Conan manipulated his thorax with his mighty digits. He really pummeled his piehole.
have you read or recorded the story Black Colossus? that is a favorite of mine
We're recording at the moment, it'll be the next Conan story we present.
very good to hear @@TheCybrarian
Do you have any plans to do The Hour of the Dragon?
Thank you so much, it always means a lot to us.
We'd really love to do hour of the dragon, but it'd be a massive undertaking, it runs over 8 hours long so we'd either need a big time out just to do it or kickstarter/patreon funding or something, but we'll get there eventually.
Keep me posted. I'll be willing to kick in some cash for that.

haha very good
Does Robert know of any other plants but the lotus?
it's not like he had google to look more up, had to rely on libraries back then
46:00
Conan: Huh a new job okay. ... Am I out of sight? Okay nah fuck this I'm out, nah fuck this fuuuuck this. Time to get rich.
well, it pays to be an opportunist, haha
Still out of sight & 3weeks richer or poorer possum
What happened to the good libryvox version of these
The writing and reading is on point but REH's obsession with mentioning everyone's race constantly has aged poorly.
Editing the stories for modern sensibilities would merely make them inauthentic and ruin them. And no one is forced to read or listen to them at gun or knife point.
Putting adds every 5 minutes in a story, forget it
Apologies, youtube been crazy with ads since it went to war with adblockers
