Barbarian Life by Roy Thomas

A lively memoir that traces a lifelong passion for pulp and comics, describing how childhood love of sword-and-sorcery and early fandom led to a central role in the rise of modern comic books; it mixes vivid behind-the-scenes anecdotes about adapting and popularizing epic characters, collaborations with artists and editors, and the business and cultural shifts inside the industry, while also reflecting on creative processes, literary influences, and the joys and challenges of a decades-long career in comics.
