Conan the Conqueror

Plot

When plague sweeps through Nemedia, felling the King and his three sons, the King's brother Tarascus assumes the throne and seizes the opportunity to invade neighboring Aquilonia without warning. King Conan rallies the Aquilonian host and rides out to meet the invader. But there are whispers that the plague was a thing of evil, brought forth from the blackest corners of the tombs of stygia at the behest of a dark master, and on the eve of battle dark forces assail the Aquilonian king and set in motion an unexpected course of events, as Howard's indomitable Conan the Barbarian hacks and slashes his way through wizards, warriors and unearthly forces in this rare full-length novel of swords and sorcery, magic and mayhem, on a quest to recapture his hard-won Aquilonian throne. This collector-quality edition includes the complete text of Robert E. Howard's classic tale of swords and sorcery and high adventure in the Hyborian Age. This volume features Conan the Barbarian in Howard's only true novel-length story.
