"I just finished the first story by John C. Hocking, author of Conan And The Emerald Lotus and Conan And The Living Plague. Both of those novels are available in one edition called Conan: City Of The Dead, published by Titan Books. The short story in this book was enjoyable and well written. I will dip in and out of this book in between reading other books. I do like my fix of sword and sorcery." — Jul 01, 2026 11:43PM
