[edit] Lancer/Ace series: 1977, 1984

In 1977, after Lancer went out of business, Ace published the last book in the planned Lancer series:

• Conan of Aquilonia (novel) • L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter • 1977

Hence, this series is often called the Lancer/Ace series; a full list of titles is set out in the Lancer article.

Ace republished the entire series in 1984, with reprints over the following years.

[edit] Ace Maroto series: 1978-1981

Ace published a short series of new pastiches by Andrew J. Offutt and old Howard/de Camp collaborations, all illustrated by Esteban Maroto: hence, this is generally known as the Ace Maroto series. The Offutt pastiches, in combination with his Conan: The Sword of Skelos from the Bantam series, form a linked trilogy.
