No son of Cimmeria ever spent much time mourning what was gone forever...but Conan has never before lost a woman such as Belit, the fierce pirate queen. So great is his grief that the mighty barbarian... This description may be from another edition of this product.
A fast-moving Sword & Sorcery adventure that, chronologically, falls between "Queen of the Black Coast" and "The Vale of Lost Women" (both from "Conan of Cimmeria"). The plot, not being bogged down with either gorgeous or gory detail, and also interspersed with subtle humor, almost made this a Conan "Lite". The ease with which the Cimmerian extricates himself from one impossible situation after another makes the story line somewhat simplistic, although the flash-backs and flash-forwards do add some otherwise-needed depth. This is escapist fun nearly at its best!
