Conan the Barbarian by Jim Zub Vol. 2

"A new era for Conan! The barbarian has faced many foes since leaving Cimmeria, but the greatest challenge lies ahead! Conan finds himself in a city in the mystical Uttara Kuru, farther on the eastern border than he has ever traveled. And with a new city comes new dangers! Unfamiliar with the language, Conan inadvertently agrees to be the latest entrant in the Great Crucible! The people of the city support their foreign champion...but what deadly dangers does the Crucible hold - and what will Conan sacrifice to overcome this ordeal? Equipped with only his strength and wits, Conan must survive deadly traps and a cadre of rivals! What is the true nature of the Great Crucible? And with only a local boy named Delian to translate for him, can anyone - or anything - be trusted?"--Provided by publisher.
