Overview

Tragedy has befallen Rykote. First there were the omens; the evanescing of the very moon from the sky followed by such violent quaking of the earth that the thunderous echo of cracking stone could be heard from within the island's heart. King Amonkar, ever the adventurer, formed a band of chosen men and women to investigate, only for he and his entire horde to vanish without a hint of what became of them. Then came the outlander who appeared on their uncharted shores, nestled at the very edge of the world, who set fire to their homes in an act of drunken degeneracy. Queen Phirtra contemplated killing the barbarian who now slept in her dungeon when a far better use for her prisoner came to her half sane mind.

Forced into servitude to pay for his crimes, Onyx finds himself in the tepid company of the queen's elite fighters. As they follow in the footsteps of the king, the islands shifting sands reveal an ancient and deadly enemy that was believed to have been vanquished long ago.

For those who enjoy Robert E. Howard's groundbreaking stories featuring Kull, the Exile of Atlantis and Conan the Cimmerian, The Shrine of the Scorpion is sure to be worth the read.
