The Tower of the Elephant

Set in the Hyborian Age, a mythical period 12,000 years ago, this story follows Conan as he attempts to steal a valuable gem from a malevolent sorcerer. Robert E. Howard, a pioneer of the sword and sorcery genre, created the iconic character of Conan, who embodies the fierce and adventurous spirit of his time. Originally published in 1933, this republished work includes a new introductory biography, providing insight into Howard's life and the influences that shaped his writing and the legendary tales of Conan.
