The Elder Dark...As thief, pirate, mercenary, adventurer, chief of barbarous tribes, and general in the armies of kings, Conan ventures far and knew all that world afforded of adventure and marvel. With his irresistable sword, the mighty Cimmerian fought demons, dragons and shambling horrors. A thousand foes felt the bitter kiss of his whirling blade - bronze-mailed warriors, malevolent wizards, fierce barbarian chieftains, and haughty kings. Even the eternal gods sometimes fled the fury of his slashing brand. Conan's most fantastic adventure...A new novel of the World's greatest hero! Conan of the Isles, based upon and continuing the Conan stories of Robert E. Howard, brings the saga of epic fantasy's mightiest hero to a glorious climax!
