04-Conan the Defiant

About this book

Conan the Defiant by Steve Perry is a classic sword-and-sorcery adventure starring Robert E. Howard's most famous barbarian hero. Out in the lawless lands of the Hyborian Age, the mighty Cimmerian is drawn into a perilous struggle over a mysterious talisman known as the Source of Light. In the dank vaults beneath a malignant temple, the ancient necromancer Neg the Malefic commands an army of the dead-not-dead and schemes to rule the living. When his prize slips from his grasp and begins a journey toward a distant temple, his fury knows no limits. Meanwhile, in the darkness of his prison of the dead, one captive zombie discovers that his grip on her may not be absolute. Expect dark sorcery, cursed temples, treacherous cities such as those of Koth, and the steel-and-sinew action that fans of the Conan saga love. Perry's fast-moving prose delivers atmospheric menace, vivid fight scenes and a sense of old-school pulp fantasy, making this a great pick for readers of heroic fantasy, Robert E. Howard's world and Hyborian Age adventure. With roughly 61,000 words, it is a quick, gripping read that works for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
