Publisher's Synopsis
Know this: After the ancient and unknown cities fell and before the history you've been told began, there was an age unlike any other. Across the great continents, vast shining empires spread and terrible barbarian hordes preyed. It was an age of kings and warlords, of sorcery and demonic beasts, of beauty and riches, of agony and terror. It was an age when kingdoms and fortunes were won by the steel of the sword and the iron-hard will that wielded it. Across this faraway era strode he, the Cimmerian. Brooding, hardened in the fires of life, he feared neither beast nor man, neither the earthly nor unearthly, bowing to none and wresting from life its shining rewards as he journeyed . . . Featuring the epic tales: "Jewels of Gwahlur", "Shadows in Zamboula", "Beyond The Black River", and "Red Nails".
