2.0 out of 5 stars
A choppy, poorly thought out tale,
By Chess Buddhist (Long Beach, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Conan, Scourge of the Bloody Coast (Mass Market Paperback)
The author seems to have many ideas and likes to throw each one out - zombie pirates, a navy of sea-going insects - but doesn't make any of them work. Great time is spent on a diving expedition which yeilds a magical harp. About half the book leads up to this find. Then the harp plays only a small role in a confusing, overblown sea battle that ends in a stalemate. The author shrugs off the fact that you've read 300 pages only for Conan to end up right back where he started. Such is life.

2.0 out of 5 stars
poor sequel to the red brotherhood,
This review is from: Conan, Scourge of the Bloody Coast (Mass Market Paperback)
Essentially a sequel to Conan and the Red Brotherhood, this novel does absolutely nothing to enhance the Conan mythos. Although Carpenter is quite adept when discussing Conan's voyages on the Vilayet, his weaknesses in the plot department are all too apparent. Conan seems to become involved in strange situations with nary an explanation only to extricate himself with little effort. Read this one only if you must!
