"From death to death [ The Heart of Ahriman]  came, riding on a river of human blood. Blood feeds it, blood draws it. Its power is greatest when there is blood on the hands that grasp it, when it is wrested by slaughter from its holder. Wherever it gleams, blood is spilt and kingdoms totter, and the forc es of nature are put in turmoil." --  Thutothmes of Khemi (The Hour of The Dragon, by REH)

Howard never disappoints! It would seem like such an easy model to follow. I have been so underwhelmed by Conan stories written by others. Making him a bungling fool. Woman crazy and other nonsense.
This story was so much fun from beginning to end. How I wished he would have lived longer the stories we could have had!
