My Rating “The Blood of the Unicorn” Andar of Bezfarda was a young boy when he first caught a glimpse of one. The sleek white body of a horse. The tail of a lion. And the horn. What a magnificent creature, the unicorn. Andar wanted so much to touch the snow-white mane. But the unicorn
My Rating “The Gem of the Golden Waters” Even with the power and prestige of the Topaz Throne, Kull of Atlantis has become malcontent.

My Rating “Heart Of Darkness” Some things in life are more valuable than gold. For Conan, honor has opened more doors than the largest gemstones. Today the Cimmerian travels into the wilds of the Ghulistani Hinterlands to repay an old woman. It is a rescue mission. One that will bring him closer to Crom’s hells
My Rating “Devil-Wings Over Shadizar” Why does the towering Minaret stand open to the sky? This is one of many questions Conan had as he raced through the darkened streets of Shadizar. The men in red robes had abducted his new friend Jenna for some nefarious purpose. Their cult seemed to be feared across the
