“The Secret of Ashtoreth!”

In "The Secret of Ashtoreth!", Conan and Belit flee the cursed island city of Kelka, where they free the captive Astarta before the city is swallowed by a wrathful sea-god. Betrayed by Kawaku and forced into deadly conflict, Belit confronts Akkheba in a moment of desperate fury. Roy Thomas's gripping tale, illustrated with dynamic precision by John Buscema and Ernie Chan, unfolds in a world where ancient gods and treachery shape fate—while Gil Kane's striking cover captures the storm-laden dread of the island's doom.
