The Conan Reader #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe Conan Reader collects essays, articles, and critical commentary exploring the legacy of Robert E. Howard's iconic barbarian, Conan. This volume gathers material from various sources, offering insights into the character's literary origins, comic book adaptations, and cultural impact. Published by Dark Horse in 2019, it serves as a companion piece for fans interested in the broader context of the Conan mythos.
In "The Jewels of Gwahlur," Conan finds himself on the run from city guards, aided by two mysterious sisters who offer a dangerous alliance. With a fabled island treasure at stake, the trio sets out on a perilous quest where every step could lead to gold—or death. Written by Ron Marz and brought to life by Bart Sears' dynamic art, with inks by Randy Elliott, colors by Mark Roberts, and letters by Troy Peteri, the cover by Tony Harris captures the tale’s raw, mythic edge.
Conan, Brenna, and Venya soon discover their isolation on the island is an illusion—others have come, and not all are seeking treasure. With the island’s ancient guardian awakening and ruthless thieves closing in, Conan must fight to survive and lead his companions to freedom.
