All I really have is the complete Conan stories by Robert E. Howard, a stack of enjoyable bastardizations perpetrated by L. Sprague de Camp & Lin Carter, and those Red Sonja novels by David C. Smith & Richard L. Tierney. I also have one Elric book and didn't care for the setting/premise, but might try it again. Aside from that, I don't think I have any fantasy books at all outside of Tolkien (which is not S&S anyway) since I've always been more of a sword & sandals, sword & planet, and sci fi reader when it came to fantasy/sci fi. So gimme your recommendations and, just as important, why.
(Also keep in mind I'm old school and don't go in for newfangled "genre deconstruction" crapola.)
