Description: One of the most celebrated Conan stories ever!
This gloriously illustrated work is brought to life by veteran fantasy comics artist Valetin Sécher (Michael Moorcock's Elric). "Conan stood for a moment on the parapet, fascinated by the fabulous jewels with their frosty reflections that dazzled him: diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires, turquoises, moonstones, as big as stars, all encrusted in the silver wall of the tower." In the Maul district of Zamora, where bandits go to celebrate their crimes, a young barbarian, black hair, broad shoulders and powerful torso, hears a Kothian talking about the Tower of the Elephant. The thief tells him that it contains in its heights the Heart of the Elephant, a marvellous jewel that offers wealth and powers to the one who holds it. Without preparation, Conan the Cimmerian undertakes the ascent of this tower reputed to be impregnable, a journey that will test the body and mind of the barbarian... This gloriously illustrated work is an adaptation of one of the most celebrated Conan stories by creator Robert E. Howard.Review Quotes: "Get this spectacular Hardcover before it disappears! 9.5/10" BotTalk Reviews
