I listened to this on eldritch archives and he did a really good job but I'm super stoked about this channel putting out a version I've listened to all your videos you do such an awesome job bringing these stories to life you're definitely one of my favorite audio book channels and in my opinion one of the best on UA-cam thank you for taking the time to make these

Your voice..
Chef's kiss.

[@williamfawkes8379]

Thank you very much. It's been too long since I've felt the savage wind in my hair.

[@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319]

A story I never read! This is wonderful! 🍻🍻🍻

[@user-ip6rn9rl1o]

Great. Just great!👍

[@TheCybrarian]

Glad you like it!

[@robbabcock_]

Thanks for a terrific performance! I'd never read this one so it was a real treat! 😎⚔👏

[@entrepreneursfinest]

You've gotta get content out more often! I always keep checking back for another good read, but I know you have to lose / miss people sometimes.

[@seanvolk4202]

Thanks!

[@fnunez]

Great narration! Please keep doing REH stories, you do them justice.

[@gary-sx1sb]

Awesome work as normal. Keep up the good work.

[@snorkherder]

[@richter6699]

You're a legend! Love your work ❤

[@jasemalvis2140]

I wish I didnt have work today! I was so excited when I saw a notification for the preview, cant wait to listen to this

[@mikedundas8224]

Another great RE Howard story brought brilliantly to life by the incredible Cybrarian!

[@VictorianTimeTraveler]

Sir, you are the only narrator I know who does Justice to Howard's work.

[@sksksksl]

Great fun! Well presented as always. Many thanks!

[@mattg3696]

Thanks for this. Made my work day.

[@danielrowan4716]

This story is reminiscent of The Fire is Assurbanipal. Great work on the narration

[@TheCybrarian]

we plan on doing that at some point

[@remdog1138]

Haven't read much Fitzgeoffrey, only Hawks of the Outremer. Nice choice.

[@TheCybrarian]

this is the only other REH Fitzgeoffrey, but we should be doing hawks this year too

[@remdog1138]

@@TheCybrarian good to know.

[@machine3589]

So glad you're still doing these.

[@teranasaurus_]

I hope yall can read the hour of dragon or jewels of gwahlur. Love the dramatic readings, keep it up!

[@TheCybrarian]

we'll def get to jewels but hour would be a tall order (it's over 8 hours long)

[@foxyreads]

Glad to see you back bro!

[@TheCybrarian]

wow, thanks unbelievable, thank you so much, this means a lot to us, stay strong and keep an eye out for some gaming content we have later today

[@yamiyomizuki]

I can't help but notice that Kull, Conan and Cormac all look nearly identical. considering that reincarnation is a thing in this world and that Conan started out in an unpublished Kull story I have to wonder if we aren't literally seeing multiple lives of one person. also for future reference Mongols roll their rs more and teend to extend vowels a bit, think an accent somewhere between Japanese and Korean.

[@hebanker3372]

All three characters you mentioned are, in a good way, self inserts of Howard. Howard was proud of his Irish heritage and he was also tall, with black hair and blue eyes, though he was different from them in everything else. Howard was, like so many other writers of his time, influenced by the concept of the Übermensch, the Nietzschian idea of a man who's unbound from the norms of society and who defines himself and everything around him the way he desires to.

[@yamiyomizuki]

@@hebanker3372 the idea of them being self inserts and being reincarnations of each other aren't mutually exclusive.

[@florian_markowetz]
