The only full-length Conan novel by Robert E. Howard,

The Hour of the Dragon is a grand epic of war, sorcery,

betrayal, and vengeance. Conan-now King of

Aquilonia-is overthrown by treachery and dark magic

when an ancient necromancer is resurrected to

manipulate power across the continent. Stripped of his

crown, pursued by enemies, and facing impossible

odds, Conan must rely on his sword, cunning, and

indomitable will to reclaim his throne. The narrative

spans vast kingdoms and eerie catacombs, from

political machinations to haunting tombs guarded by

undead horrors. A masterpiece of high adventure, the

novel showcases Howard's mature storytelling, fusing

fast-paced action with depth, world-building, and

existential defiance. The Hour of the Dragon is not just a

tale of brute force-it is a sweeping saga of fallen kings,

cursed artifacts, and the warrior spirit unbroken. An

essential read for fans of heroic fantasy.
