Super Reader,
By Blue Tyson "- Research Finished" (Legion clubhouse) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Conan The Magnificent (Mass Market Paperback)
Conan the Magnificent is actually quite a reasonable pastiche. The barbarian runs into a female thief, who bests him before he realises.Getting into more trouble, he has to leave Shadizar for a while, where he encounters a female noblewoman who likes to hunt with a small retinue. Some others would like her jewels and other treasures lurk, so there is sword swinging to be done, and an evil sorcerer to top it off.
