Gods of the North — also titled The Frost Giant's Daughter — is undoubtedly the earliest Conan story written by Robert E. Howard, when talking about the chronology of the adventurous life of the intrepid Cimmerian who left his homeland in the wild north to roam the entire Hyborian world and end his days as the conquering king of the proud Aquilonia, the most powerful of the civilized kingdoms of his mythical age. The story begins right after a great battle between a band of Vanir and another of Aesir, in which Conan figured. In that battle, eighty men, Vanir and Aesir, had perished in bloody combat over the bloodstained frozen plains, with the Cimmerian as the only survivor. This volume also features the poem Cimmerian and the iconic essay on the Hyborian Age history, written by Howard to introduce the readers to his mighty Cimmerian world.
