About this ebook
Capturing the electric short fiction energy that led Robert E. Howard to be one of the top fantasy writers of the century, with exclusive serialized eBook stories starring Conan, Solomon Kane, and more by many of today’s top writers in fantasy and sword-and-sorcery.
Sailing together on the Tigress, Conan and Bêlit hijack and plunder a ship. Victorious but with a damaged ship to show for it, the pirates return to their secret island haven. They arrive to find their village under attack, not by men, but hideous things—part men, part aquatic creatures.
Powerful but ungainly, these bloodthirsty frog-men are faster and even more formidable in the water. Conan, Bêlit and her crew watch helplessly as the abominations abscond with the women of their village. Unable to give chase due to their damaged ship, Conan and Bêlit swear vengeance on these monstrosities.

The ONLY reason I didn't give this very fast-paced Howardian/Lovecraftian hybrid tale five stars is that the damn thing is only a short story!! This was great! It felt very natural in that it felt very much as though it could be a lost tale of Conan and Belit from the pen of REH himself. Maybe the author would consider revisiting the Hyborian Age, if not just adding to this amazing bit of prose. This is genuinely one of the very best of the stories in this series so far.
