The Chronicles of Conan #5

Conan, captured by the Witch-Dancers of Zembabwei and forced into the dark rites of their moonlit cult, must outwit M'gorah and Thutmekri to survive. With the deadly Zemba looming and Helgi in peril, the Cimmerian fights to reclaim his freedom in a land where the moon itself seems to hunger for blood.

In the scorched aftermath of a brutal battle, Conan finds himself caught between the blood-soaked sands of war and the shadowed streets of Yaralet, where the ambitions of Munthassem Khan threaten to drown the city in chaos. With Hildico at his side, the Cimmerian must navigate treachery and sorcery as ancient forces stir beneath the dust.

In the hilly countryside, Conan finds himself locked in battle not just against the fierce Hill-Men, but against his own shadow—a haunting, living thing that mirrors his every move. As the line between warrior and specter blurs, the true nature of the conflict begins to unravel, leaving only the weight of a sword in the final panel to ponder.

In the fire-lit heart of Wan Tengri, Conan moves through shadows as a spy for the Turanian army, drawn into a deadly game of treachery and flame. When he confronts the fearsome Shamash the terrible, the city’s fate ignites in chaos—civil war erupts, and a princess long held in the Tower of Flame finds her freedom at last.
