I see this:
http://www.ipdb.org/search.pl?any=conan&search=Search+Database&searchtype=quick
which looks like a one-off not mass produced "possible conversion of Bally 1980s Rolling Stones."

Is there another Conan pin of which I am not aware?

(Note also ipdb link above has flyer from "company" that made this Conan pin, apparently also made "Heavy Metal" pin. Doesn't appear legit. But who knows?)

Aside from comic book pinballs, I think that a book only becomes a pinball machine after it has been made into a movie.

Still researching those and some other questionable entries.

Sinbad, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Stargate

Was not a book, it was based off the story 'Heart of Darkness'.

I know. I was listing the Pinball names not the names of books that inspired the movie that inspired the pinball machine.

"Verne's world" has 2 of Jules Verne's books incorporated into it's theme
