“Aquilonia: Shining Jewel of the Dreaming West”
Jeffrey Shanks brings the learning with this detailed summary of Howard’s city of Aquilonia. From its beginnings to the ultimate downfall of the Mad King Numedides, Aquilonia was the crown jewel of the Hyborian Age. Don’t let any Stygian tell you differently.
Review
The Stygian Eye of Woe has returned! This time there will be no help from the distant future to help Conan fight this dark curse. Jim Zub continues to bring premium content to the fans. And let’s not forget the awesome artist that makes this all possible. Fernando Dagnino and Francesca Baerald do amazing work. Robert E Howard would surely approve. I give part two of The Conquering Crown four out of five stars.
