I like this guy reading. Drinking and getting drunk as he goes. It's like reading at home or something. He really got mad at that dog.

[@yduronerom6380]

Lol you can hear him burping and cracking beers, flipping pages and talking to himself. He's fukin greatness and I need to listen to more of this shit baby!

[@TheReelRebel]

Thats' it, crack a beer before reading LOL

[@walterdebnam8021]

This gets better every time I hear this. A hot apartment and cold beers make for an entertaing afternoon. I've read this myself but I'd rather listen to him.

[@jeremywinton8978]

This is awesome if more books were done like this I own all of them

[@WillMurphy275]

Crow cawing in the back ground during the pit fight! Priceless!!!

[@caseandalexis]

Great book......great reading, I think the narrator is slowely getting drunk while you can hear sirens in the back ground....haha....I love it

[@ldroland]

This is the best audiobook I have listened to in years. This is a reader who knows what's best in life. Give us more!

[@mrkojak-ci1zm]

" I HATE MY EFFING NEIGHBORS AND THEIR EFFING DOG " hahaha this guy is cool.

[@marksuleski1078]

I cannot watch the origional movie with James Earl Jones and not imagine the narrator's violence without luaghing!! Great job!

[@Muzzie0323]

I love the sound of a can being popped open prior to the reading... LOL!!

[@spidertown1]

great reading...and the readers jokes are wonderful additions

[@VillainNews]

excellent. I just read Conan the destroyer this past summer. i needed to hear this one.

[@VillainNews]

vernonclassic no. What's that?

[@VillainNews]

vernonclassic Well, I know Dennis the menace published a few joke books. Maybe you could read oneof those and hone your jests to a level where they're at least identifiable.

[@jeramiahjohnson3778]

i listen to alot of audio books. best reading i have ever heard

[@KingKrytin]

There are over 100 Conan novels out now. Most are freakin' great.

[@brannonmacgorman8607]

lol 2:36:03. For the record I appreciate this gentleman's reading I like his sipping of cold brew in the same fashion as the Barbarian himself I just have issues with few points in the story here

[@realityprogrammer1218]

3:57:00 and keep listening for a minute and a half. It just comes out of nowhere. I have seldom enjoyed an audiobook more.

[@xorben1981]

Very good!

[@dan5609]

I thoroughly enjoyed your candor.

[@stevenneildance]

I enjoyed this very much. Doom's voice was genius.(ha ha) Thanks audio books for the dammed

[@babymammoth34]

Thought I was hearing the infamous Knights of Ni from Monty Python, LMAO Shit man! Hahaha!

[@babymammoth34]

So Great Man, thank you.

[@davidleidy815]

Thank you sir, for a story well read and also for the fits of my laughter which punctuated each candid comment & curse.

[@babymammoth34]

I certainly enjoyed the way Chris Henry narrated the entire encounter with the witch in the hut. Compelling stuff.

[@darkempire37]

great reading man ! you should read Conan the Destroyer by Robert Jordan next ! and thank you for posting this ......been wanting to "read " this book forever but have not been able to find it .

[@Audiobooksforthedamned666]

Thanks for listening!

[@darkempire37]

My pleasure .

[@codelicious6590]

This is the Conan I love! I rteally prefer the non- Howard stories anyway, he kinda short-shifted us when he left Conan with no origins or continuity of timeline.

[@garrytomtim8006]

The beer and the random cussing actually ads to the vibe of the story

[@jchart01]

good stuff! thanks for this. subscribed. :^)

[@scorponicdragonm.p.t.]

Bro! Your readings are the best! Sirens, dogs, drinking and cursing!!! Better than any film😂😂😂

[@brain_apostrophe_t]

That beer crack freaking killed me. You remind me of my bf, he does shit like that all the time lol

[@tommymclaughin1377]

One of the best voices I've heard on audio books.. Thanks

[@killercrabman]

Great voice, combined with the low(ish) sound quality it sounds very much like a tape of an 80s audio book. Very authentic!

[@vidstarr]

At 1:47:10 , the reader quotes the strange woman, the female sorceress Conan encounters before he frees Sabotai (First time I found out it was she who kept him captive unlike the film, where that was not quite what happened, but it might have. it might be that she kept him on longer leash, & unbound, but captive. Believe me, I know this from personal experience.) Anyway, the quote is "It matter not, his (Your?) spine will be nailed to a tree" It's hard to tell wether she mean her captive, or Conan, but I figured she mean the former, not the latter.

[@yduronerom6380]

Ensorcelled: Something that has had sorcerery used in it's creation My own private definition

[@thecosmicaesthetic]

You couldn't open that beer before starting the recording 😂

[@daleanderson1727]

thnx

[@deadboys007]

Man....homeboy needed a sixer to read this madness

[@scorponicdragonm.p.t.]

And stabbed the f**king dogs brain in😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀

[@IronBlimp]

Was that a Pabst?

[@anku6793]

Casting Hunter S. Thompson as the Wizard is another unexpected stroke of genious!

[@jeremyharris7530]

Lol this guy kills me with the smacking he's got a good voice but he knows nothing about editing LOL

[@scorponicdragonm.p.t.]

Is the wizard Johnny Depp from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas?😂😂😂💀💀💀💀

[@tonygary8578]

👍👍

[@johnhart7704]

I came for the Conan . I stayed for the neighbour abuse and drunken {?} asides .

[@odtheman1]

4:50:00

[@abednegotheunburnt4371]

Featuring John Redcorn as Conan & Hunter S Thompson as Subotai

[@mikebloxham5346]

Thanks for trying

[@aramere3650]

3:46:02 RENEWAL

[@dfarr9585]

Normally reader is on point but his voice for Doom is nerve grating, like a Monty python muppet , James earl jones it is not lol

[@oneminutereviews25]

Men shall.die for this

[@LordSesshomaru86]

With a voice like this, and considering the story, the narration had potential to be epic, but all it amounted to was repugnance. I've listened to a few narrators here, this is by far the most impertinent, whether it's smacking his lips and sighing in your ear every time he takes a sip(which is throughout what I could stomach of the reading), randomly cursing out neighbors, burping or burp-talking, or the travesty that is Doom's "voice". I wanted to stop once he went off on a tangent about his neighbors, but pressed on to see if Conan and Doom's conversation had been extended more than the movie when Conan got caught. I finally reach that point just to hear him voice Doom like he's Skeletor's baby sister - I checked out after that. I'd rather listen to Amy or Jon any day of the week, won't listen to a book narrated by him again(not that they're still adding books).

[@brannonmacgorman8607]

this is good I'm enjoying it I like it I appreciate it but it is not canon and does not fit into Robert E Howard history of Conan

[@vidstarr]

I thought Conan's father was called Corin, not Nile. That's who Ron Perlman was credited as on IMDB.com in the last film they made. Not sure about his mother being called Maeve or Medb, ether, but this sounds more fitting if they are like the Celts.

[@shanegreen4076]

Look up Robert E. Howard. Read his works. Nuff said

[@melindathornton5876]

1 48 02

[@brannonmacgorman8607]

1:15:25 Im calling total BS on this!! Conan never killed anyone in that manner what to speak of a woman. whoever wrote this crap attempting to add the burden of their lame outlook upon the nobility of the Hawordian hero archetype is clueless. not one of Howard's Heroes ever kills a woman child or any helpless individual

[@lewstherin9464]

I'm thinking This is basically the script for the 1982 movie, it's definitely not canon. He meets Valeria in Red Nails

[@whomee2]

this is one of the most horrendous narrations I have ever heard. no professionalism whatsoever, barely an effort, insulting to both the author and the listeners.

[@spidertown1]

WRONG!!!! Conan ....what is best in life?

[@vidstarr]

Not that bad really, unless your referring to the sound of him opening a tinny before starting and the swearing under his breath. Not such a bad audio at all.

[@codelicious6590]

Oh, I think, "barely an effort" is just annoyance talking; the sounds of "gulp, aaaaahhhhh" grind my gears super hard but I made it nearly all the way through due to the actual effort put into it and the voices are proof of that effort, aside from the aforementioned noises, some mispronounced words and the frothing neighbor cursing (with which I unfortunately sympathize) its a damn good effort. I imagine reading aloud for long periods of time requires a bit of practice to get good and this guy will do well if he smooths it out a bit.
