The Path on the road of Kings is not an easy one as Conan and his companion Olivia can’t seem to avoid trouble wherever they go.
Conan must visit an old acquaintance before embarking on the next leg of their journey. Trying to keep Olivia out of harms way, he leaves her under the watchful eye of one of the barmaids at a tavern. However, as it often does, alcohol gets Olivia into more trouble then she and Conan might have wanted. And while Conan is seeking out his friend, Olivia is taken hostage.
When Conan returns to the tavern he finds Olivia missing and then engages in a battle with a heinous beast!
Once again, we have another masterful Conan book published by Dark Horse Comics. Kudos to the staff involved with the production of this book as the art and writing had me glued to every panel. For my money the Conan books are some of the best out there. If you haven’t read any of them yet, go out and grab them!
Conan Road of Kings # 3 receives 4.5 out of 5 swords!
