This standalone story is the first time that the legendary Walter Simonson (The Mighty Thor, X-Factor, Fantastic Four) has written for Conan!
Following rumors of untold treasures into the mystic East, Conan the Barbarian stumbles into a web of sorcery, deception, and danger. A chance encounter with a captive princess leads to a night of passion, a clash of steel, and a confrontation with an otherworldly power. Faced with ancient magic and unseen dangers, Conan must fight not merely for fortune, but survival – for in a land of illusions, even a barbarian’s instincts may not be enough.
