While Conan's armies prepare to entrap the forces of the enemy alliance, dark machinations are afoot to strike at Conan's own heart. The malign sorcerer Caliastros, in league with the Warlord of Koth, casts black spells that could take the lives of Conan's wife and children and end his bloodline forever! The Chronicles of King Conan further the legend of Robert E. Howard's epic creation, collecting for the first time the long out-of-print Conan the King tales originally published by Marvel Comics. Volume 10 collects Marvel's Conan the King #41-#45, never before reprinted. Series Overview: Since obtaining the Conan license in 2003, Dark Horse has maintained a two-track publishing program for the property.

Howard. This is the latest volume of The Chronicles of King Conan reprint series.
