Just got done reading "How I Became a Therapist in Another World" omnibus by C.A. Moss. DELIGHTFUL. Cozy, low stress, totally charming, and best of all, not a concept I've ever seen before. Highly recommend as comfort reading. If I was still running my indie bookstore I'd definitely stock this one. Highest praise I can give.

Further details, from my mother who also read the book at the time:
"I remember he was alone as he approached those enormous highly carved gates. The carvings told the story of the city or the land.
The soldiers of the winning side were, of course, well disciplined, physically and mentally. In a sequel, some of the soldiers of the losing side sought to emulate these behaviours and would defer to victors, not through fear but through admiration and respect. There was some magic in the books as well."
Does that help anyone?
A challenge for bookworms of the Fedi:
I remember reading a book, about thirty years ago, which was as far as I recall a sword-&-sorcery type fantasy novel in which the main character was a man who had as companion and familiar, a raven. Now, this would have passed uncommented on, except that at about the time I was reading the book, I met a raven at a bird sanctuary, and it was enormous!
I've a vague desire to read the book again, and I can't remember the title, the author, or even the character's name. Not even the raven's name.
Does it ring any bells?
Boosts welcome, if you are happy to do so!

Robert E. Howard - The Complete Chronicles of Conan
Did I enjoy it? Yes.
Would I recommend it? No.
The racism and sexism are at the level I would expect from a white rural Texan writing in the 1930's. Even though explicitly praising diversity of peoples (races) when describing nations or cities, his women are mostly passive and always taken and 'savages' are all too often cruel blacks. His romantic view of the 'barbarian' as a man with innate decency and other talents lost to 'civilized men' is something that was dated even in the 1930's.
So why did I enjoy this collection still?
For one there is the 'antropological' aspect of reading this kind of stuff. Besides that, these short stories are like the SF of that era, completely plot-driven, fast paced. You want to turn that page. Lastly there are stylistic aspects that hint back to the oral traditions of Norse myths. For instance the use of alliterations, like 'the lurking listener' 'a purple pulp' (what Conan would have been if crushed by a falling stone) and even better Howard's use of kennning-like descriptions. 'The sharp cloud' for a barrage of arrows, 'blue rolling wastes' for the sea and 'his crimson work' for Conan slaying his enemies.
