== Other authors ==
Over the decades, many other authors have written official [[Fanfic|fanfics]] - or more formally, [[wikipedia:Pastiche|pastiches]] - of Conan. There are more [[wikipedia:Conan chr(28)bookschr(29books)|Conan stories by other writers]] combined than Howard himself ever wrote.
 
Their ranks include [[The Wheel of Time|Robert Jordan]] and [[Harry Turtledove]], but the most significant of them was the [[Show Runner]]-of-sorts back in the day, [[L. Sprague de Camp|L Sprague De Camp]] (1907-2000). He wrote several pastiches with the frequent collaboration of another author, Lin Carter (1930-1988). Both were prolific fantasy and SF authors in their own right, but they are perhaps most associated with Conan today.
