info needed

[gav]

I am looking for more information on Hyperborians I have the Road of Kings could someone recommend some other sources please. The PCs are starting as slaves in Hyperboria and moving on to Zamora .

Try the Dark Horse Comic.

They just ran a story over several issues that was based in Hyperborea.

You might also try the following resources:

"Legions of the Dead" by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter (contained in the book Conan the Swordsman)

"The Witch of the Mists" by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter (contained in the book Conan of Aquilonia)

Marvel's Conan the Barbarian issues 252-260 by Roy Thomas

Savage Sword of Conan #39

King Conan #1

The Witchmen of Hyperborea (written by me) in Signs and Portents #9.

Unfortunately, even with those available sources, I doubt you will be able to glean much that was not used in The Road of Kings. The best bet might be to look up the recent Dark Horse comic, as that was not available to me when I wrote The Road of Kings (Conan #0 was the only issue published when I finished writing it).

Bear in mind that de Camp/Carter's and Busiek's Hyperboreas are independent and mutually incompatible inventions spun from Howard's brief information.
