![]() ![]() This is my first re-read of one in maybe 40 years. I’d say this is definitely one of the better Conan stories. And the story’s a gripping adventure in a mysterious, war-torn and claustrophobic ancient city, full of sword and sorcery done right. Valeria is a strong warrior like Conan and not just another stereotypical damsel in distress, so that’s very much appreciated. ![]() But I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised. This forces them to work together, so they can both make it out alive of this adventure.Īfter a few Conan adventures that were all starting to blend into one, my expectations for this story weren’t very high to be honest. Then a monster appears and starts feasting on their horses. They both like one another, but they’re too proud and stubborn to admit it. When he catches up to her, they start to bicker like an old married couple. Not because Conan wants to punish her though. The beautiful and powerful Valeria killed a man and is now on the run. ![]()
