Amazing work! Feb 21, Christopher rated it it was amazing Shelves: comics. Absolutely fantastic adaptation of the only Conan novel: 'The Hour of the Dragon. Jan 20, Trekscribbler rated it it was amazing. Howard penned for his Conan the Barbarian character. Understandably, fans of the work attach a great deal of reverence to it. With this thinking in mind, scribe Timothy Truman approaching King Conan: the Conqueror Horse Comics with the request to adapt it in such a way to grant the source material the respect King Conan: the Conqueror deserves. It seemed more than a bit anti-climactic. Naturally, that quest takes the man down some dark paths, pitting him against an opposing team of hunters trying to get the stone before Conan as well as some other nasty practitioners in the black arts. Eventually, he does get it back … but this tale is far from over as now the fallen king needs to amass his allies in order to have his revenge. Will we see this version of King Conan ever again? One may certainly hope. The result — so far as this reader is concerned — is fantastic. Well done, by Crom, well done! View 1 comment.

Y lo King Conan: the Conqueror con la parte de la reconquista de su trono de Aquilonia, tras todo lo ocurrido en el anterior tomo y con la tristeza y la sombra de la King Conan: the Conqueror de Zenobia uno de sus grandes amores. Tomo imprescindible para quien guste de Conan en general y de las adaptaciones que de Robert E. Howard hacen Truman y Giorello. Nov 15, Ben rated it really liked it Shelves: graphic-novels. Great conclusion to King Conan: The Hour of the Dragonwhich adapts Howard's original story, and apparently only full length Conan novel. Truman plays to his strengths and while King Conan: the Conqueror have been less than impressed by his artistic offerings, his literary ones are very readable. Tomas Giorello does a nice job of filling the pages with colour and a frenetic feeling. Hopefully, there shall be more in this series. Dec 25, Marko rated it it was amazing. Simply excellent. The best adaptation from Dark Horse to date. The King Conan series is the Conan series to follow these days. Sep 11, PickinDavis rated it it was amazing. The best combo ever to write a Conan comic ever! But Truman, Giorello, and Villarrubia have taken Howard story telling to King Conan: the Conqueror new level. This was quite great! Good story, and Giorello's pages are full of epicness! Too bad the coloring isn't as good as the inks are, but at least it's not ruining them. Mar 24, Paul rated it it was amazing. Stunning artwork and an adaptation of the only full novel of Conan written by Robert E Howard make this comic gold. Sep 26, John rated it really liked it. For once, we get a direct adaption of Robert E. Howard's Conan novel. Superb art accompanies this tightly done fast-paced volume. If you are a Conan fan, don't miss this one.

Frank Frazetta Illustrator. Of the 21 Conan the Barbarian tales that Robert E. Howard completed in his all-too-brief lifetime, Hour of the Dragon was the King Conan: the Conqueror novel-length story. It may also be the very best of the series, crafted when the legendary pulp writer was working at the height of his powers. Conan is a huge swordsman fighting both natural and supernatural foes in a time-lost wor Of the 21 Conan the Barbarian tales that Robert E. Conan is a huge swordsman fighting both natural and supernatural foes in a time-lost world known as the Hyborian Age. At this point in his bloody career, Conan is the middle-aged king of the ancient kingdom of Aquilonia. He must fight one final battle to save the known world from a resurrected sorcerer named Xaltotun. Only the fabled Heart of Ahriman can destroy Xaltotun, and Conan must embark on an epic quest to retrieve the Heart. Howard hammered out every word as if he had actually lived through it himself, and in doing so forged a crimson masterpiece of heroic fantasy.

Start your review of Conan the Conqueror. The one and only - originally written in five parts for the magazine Weird Tales under the title The Hour of the Dragonthen eventually published as a book under a new title. Apparently a publishing company looking to fit this novel in with a King Conan: the Conqueror series of Conan stories decided that Conan the Conqueror was more appropriate. Personally, I like t Personally, I like the original title better. In this lengthened tale Conan must escape an ancient sorcerer, track down and steal an artifact of great power and take back the throne of Aquilonia from the "rightful" heir, and his accomplices, who have usurped him and thrown his kingdom and people into ruin. This was a pleasure to read. I enjoy Howard's poetic writing style and the exotic, yet familiar world in which Conan fights and thrives - a world somewhere betweeen myth and our own ancient histories. My only complaint is the end seemed a bit rushed. After the very last line I expected something more, but it was just When you hear the name Conan, you may get an image probably of Arnold in fur trimmed underpants Conan isn't just an over-muscled sword wielding barbarian. He's intelligent, thoughtful, cunning and much more humane and sympathetic than popular images, or just plain assumptions, might have you believe. As you follow Conan through his many obstacles you discover a character who is hardened, but not without compassion. True, he's mostly King Conan: the Conqueror his way through obstacles, escaping sorcerers, powers of darkness, and terrible creatures, but in between some of those moments King Conan: the Conqueror get a glimpse or two of the heart of Conan. Behind those smoldering blue eyes lies a man of heart. I think that's why I like these stories so much. I've mentioned Howard's writing, which I love, but without a character that has something more than the ability to hack his enemies to pieces these stories wouldn't be quite so enjoyable. Important to mention - this does share some similaries with the short The Scarlet Citadel during the first few chapters of the book. A lot of the details and some of the names where changed or replaced, but the basic concept is still there. As far as this particular kindle edition Not Recommended. There were so many spelling errors it started to become King Conan: the Conqueror. Words ending in "rn" were spelled with an "m. A couple I wasn't sure the correct word was being used in a sentence. There's no way this saw an editor. View all 14 comments. Another of the heavily edited collections of Robert E. Howards stories. I am a purist when it comes to a writers works. I know some of these stories are no longer PC but they should be read as Howard wrote them and understood that he wrote in another period. King Conan: the Conqueror read this book unless you just can't find any others of Howard's unedited books to read.

So far, in my reading of all things Conan, I've only read the original stories, written by creator Robert E. I haven't ventured out and read any Robert Jordan, Steve Perry, Leonard Carpenter, or any other Conan authors out there, due to the fact that I want to read the originals first to obtain what Robert E. Howard envisioned. Conan the Conqueror was an excellent book, probably the best Conan book I've ever read. There was only one There's really nothing like reading a good Conan book. There was only one story presented, unlike the other previous original eight Conan books out there, consisting of four or five short stories per book. No, it was just one epic, glorious adventure of a king on a mission to regain his kingdom. The Nemedian rulers raised a necromancer from the King Conan: the Conqueror, by the name of Xaltotun of Acheron, to use for their benefit to fight against King Conan and the Aquilonians. War wages, and the Nemedians and Aquilonians believe they witness the death of King Conan in battle. Unbeknownst to both warring parties, Conan survives and is taken prisoner to Belvarus, a city in King Conan: the Conqueror country. After fighting a giant ape, Conan escapes Belvarus and runs into a priest of Asura, Hadrathus. The priest then informs Conan on how to kill Xaltotun Conan sets out on a journey to obtain said jewel, which has been stolen from one person to the next. The last known person to have the Heart of Ahriman is a priest of Set, Thutothmes. And the only way for Conan to get him and the jewel is to travel to Stygia, the home of the priests of Set and Thoth-Amon, Conan's former foe. After an small battle in the temples and streets of Stygia, Conan regains the Heart of Ahriman. All along the way, Conan runs into bands of men who want to help him win back his kingdom of Aquilonia. When the armies of King Conan: the Conqueror and Conan's army of Aquilonians and all the surrounding countries meet in battle, Conan wins by strategy and magic, thus winning back Aquilonia and setting up a queen by his side.

Comic Books. Amazing issue that brings the entire series full circle and leaves an indelible memory that can be both enjoyable and inspirational. King Conan The Conqueror 6 is the final issue in the series and has Conan and his army facing off against Xaltotun and his forces one final time as King Conan recounts this saga to his scribe. He recalls the march through the kingdom under a unified banner with the soldiers rejuvenated due to the fact that their king was still alive. It appears the only thing Xaltotun has to his advantage is holding Zenobia captive but no one has any idea that she means so much to Conan. Will the Heart of Ahriman be enough to overcome this plot or will it be enough to give Xaltotun even a slight victory? That feeling might seem like a fit for the whore metaphor Conan used King Conan: the Conqueror describe war and all it takes but it actually fits what was done with the overall story this issue. King Conan: the Conqueror are times when one might be in the mood for some mindless fun and it does the job and there are times when meatier elements are necessary for satisfaction. King Conan: the Conqueror beauty of this series, which is highlighted immensely with this issue, is it might appear at first as just simple fun with its forward moving story and entertaining action, King Conan: the Conqueror can be enjoyed as such. However the subtext that becomes crystal clear as you flip through the pages and you see Conan and his army overcome various obstacles, and the means in which they do so, gives the story so many layers and you can appreciate even more everything that occurred. I highly recommend this series.
