Conan And The Treasure Of Python Author:John Maddox Roberts There is more to a Conan story than swordplay. Roberts portrays Conan as having his own sense of nobility and honor, and he endows the supporting characters with their own motivations and traits. By the end of the book, you are almost sad to see these characters depart one way or another.
Conan joins a band of wealthy travellers who are on a quest for a treasure guarded by violent tribesman and a monster straight out of Lovecraft. A better than average new Conan book.
