Les Chroniques de Conan #17

In "Le singe-vampire de Marmet Tarn," Conan tracks a monstrous ape-vampire through the jungles of Marmet Tarn, where he crosses paths with the enigmatic widow Lia and her unsettling brother-in-law Zvevo. As secrets unfold and ancient magic stirs, Conan must face not only the beast he hunts but a far older enemy—Wrarrl, the soul-devourer—whose vengeance threatens to consume them all.

In "Les hommes-léopards du Darfar," Conan stumbles upon a kidnapped girl who chooses to stay with her captors, leaving him to navigate a tangled web of danger. With slavers, amazons, and other threats closing in, he must find a way to survive—and decide what justice truly means—before the desert claims them all.

In "Le sanglant rubis de la mort !", Conan and the former slave Sorcha hunt a fabled treasure in a crumbling ruin, only to fall into the hands of a fanatical expedition from a kingdom once ruled by the sage King Nekros. Led by the treacherous Baron Gerned and the sorcerer Bhutra Mamnon, the group seeks the king’s corpse and a cursed gem forged in blood—meant to break the magic that protected him. As greed consumes the soldiers, Conan and Sorcha barely survive the chaos, but the jewel vanishes into the shadows.
