Before I began assembling such a bibliography, I had to define what the word Īpasticheā meant. Its meaning has been a topic under debate for years and no matter what anyone says on the matter, everyone leaves with his or her own definition of what it means to them. The following definition is how I perceive its meaning. By no means should you accept this point of view, but to give you an understanding of where I am coming from, I believe I should do this:
The topic of Pastiches can be one that can divide fans and define what it is a fan loves more·the character or the author. The word pastiche is defined as a work of art that mixes style, mood, materials and elements of another artist. Pastiches differ from Fan Fiction as someone well known or who are skilful in writing usually writes them, and the works are usually printed. These authors wish to write about a character (and their surroundings) because they (in most cases) admire the authorās creation and wish for the characterās adventures and tales to continue forever. At times though, money is the prime reason in driving these people to write pastiches, the L.S. d. Camp "Conan" stories being an excellent example of this, and therefore, paying no respect to the author and their original works in the process. Many of these pastiche stories aim to provide a fresh new look on the character(s) and their world. Those foolish enough to believe they are continuing, perfecting or duplicating the original are sorely mistaken. Most pastiche authors fail to capture the mood or style of the originators, no matter what lengths they go to, for what made the original so special in the first place, also made it unique. The most well known acts of pastichism in the fantasy field are the works of Robert E. Howard (mostly "Conan" the Barbarian from Cimmeria), Edgar R. Burroughās "Tarzan" and the infamous "Cthulhu Mythos", a universe based off the works of Howard P. Lovecraft. They have all fallen under the pastiche hammer and many times, have felt the damaging blow of writings by hackwork authors. Not all pastiches are to be looked down upon (especially when dealing with the Mythos) for some are considered to be works of art that even the originator would have been proud of. However, if you talk amongst the fans that have read such pastiches, the majority states a disapproval or general disappointment in the work. I for one, am I candidate for being against such works of pastiches, especially in Howard's case.
Let me state though, what will NOT be seen here. You will not see the infamous 'Conan clones' that loitered the better half of the seventies (such as Brak, Kothar, Thongor, etc) as they are considered homage's, no matter what one's perception may be of them, even if they seem to rewrite the original ideas Howard conveyed in his tales. One would like to say that they are ripping-off the works of Howard and molding them into atrocities, a pastiche of Conan by their hand, but alas, there must be a line drawn and distinction made. These are homages and not pastiches, as they do not include any of the creations by the original author.
In this bibliography, there will be NO adaptations of Howard's works, found within the medium of comic books or any other format.
You may be asking, why does a person whom has such a strong disliking towards the pastiche works of Robert E. Howard, spend so much time on creating a bibliography of such works? Simple. This will help and make quite clear, to those newcomers whom read Howard's works, what are pure Howard and that which is not. To many a time has there been those whom mis-credit works as being that by Howard or even worse, that Conan the Barbarian was not his creation!
I have decided to mimic the layout of the well known and most used bibliography of Howard's original fiction by Robert M. Price (an update of the Joe Marek listing), entitled "A COLLECTOR'S CHECKLIST OF HOWARD'S FICTION". However, all of this was done by myself (with proofreading by fellow R.E.Hupan's Dale Rippke and Charles Gramlich), therefore is Copyright © 2001 by Ben Szumskyj. Thanks again to Joe Marek for his work on REH bibliographies and his layout of genres and characters.
On a last note, I highly recommend you have a read of James Van Hise's short essay " Pastiche: The Burning Issue" at: http://www.rehupa.com/vanhise_pastiche.htm.

Conan Against the Gods - synopsis (by Robert M. Price) |
Unpublished (approved by De Camp for the Tor series) |
Note: The original "Snout in the Dark" fragment (de Camp's title) covers up to Chapter 5 of the story as it appears in the Lancer/Ace Conan of Cimmeria; de Camp continued it based on the synopsis found in Cromlech 3. "Drums of Tombalku" (de Camp's title) is Howard's up to page 170, "You saved our lives"; the synopsis for the rest is found in Cromlech 3. "Wolves Beyond the Border" is Howard's up to page 145, "We lay close ...". "The Black Stranger" first appeared as Howard wrote it in Echoes of Valor, 1987. In 1952 de Camp extensively rewrote and condensed the story as "The Treasure of Tranicos" and submitted it to Fantasy Magazine. Editor Lester del Rey restored Howard's title but added four paragraphs at the opening (from "Count Valenso" to "writhing again") and published the tale in 1953. The Gnome Press King Conan (also 1953) used this de Camp-del Rey recension but restored de Camp's title. Years later de Camp rewrote it again for inclusion in the Lancer/Ace Conan the Usurper, this time restoring the portions he had condensed, but keeping his plot and character changes and some name changes and excising del Rey's additions. This version also bore the title "The Treasure of Tranicos" and appeared in Conan the Usurper and Ace's illustrated The Treasure of Tranicos. (All this information comes from de Camp, "The Trail of Tranicos" in The Spell of Conan [Ace] or The Conan Reader [Mirage] or The Treasure of Tranicos [Ace].) Ironically, with the publication of Howard's original "The Black Stranger," de Camp's initial rewrite in its unedited form becomes the rarest, never-published version!
Note 2: There was rumors that John Eric Holmes wrote a Conan pastiche set in Africa, but it was rejected by the publisher. No information regarding its current form is known.
Note 3: As you no doubt know but might want to make note of, the following books appeared first as Lancers: Conan, Conan the Adventurer, Conan the Warrior, Conan the Usurper, Conan the Conqueror, Conan the Freebooter, Conan the Wanderer, Conan the Buccaneer, Conan of Cimmeria and Conan the Avenger.
