| Synopsis: |
"I'll be king no more!" A veteran of countless battles, a victor over warriors, wizards, and creatures of darkness, Conan's resolve has never wavered. But when reports of an ambush upon a diplomatic party led by his son reach the barbarian king, news of his son's death at the hands of murderous brigands and baleful sorcery cuts Conan deeper than has any blade. Brought low by grief and guilt, Conan's melancholy threatens to tear his kingdom apart at a time when his mighty hand is needed most. |
