Conan: The Blood of the Serpent w.ukraińska - S. M. Stirling [KSIĄŻKA]

Like a warrior who sold his sword for gold, Conan arrives in Sukhmet, a gloomy and dirty town south of the Styx River. Here, in the ranks of Zarallo's Free Companions, he serves among a motley crew of mercenaries from all over the world. They are cruel, battle-hardened, and loyal only to the sound of coins. In a local tavern, Conan meets Valeria of the Red Brotherhood, a fearless sea robber with whom he once went on raids. She has a reputation as a dangerous swordswoman, and quickly proves that this reputation is well deserved. But when Valeria clashes with a Stygian aristocrat, both find themselves drawn into a deadly game played by the priest of the sinister god Set, lord of snakes and shadows.

The Blood of the Serpent is the first new Conan novel in more than a decade, continuing the legendary adventures of Robert Howard's hero.

The publication also includes Robert Howard's novella Red Nails, the last of the author's stories about the Cimmerian. First serialized in Weird Tales magazine in 1936, this novella has been translated into Ukrainian for the first time.
