Conan and the Living Plague 
by John C. Hocking 

Originally scheduled for release in September 2019, this book has been delayed.

New post at the Rough Edges blog.

The long awaited follow up to 'Conan And The Emerald Lotus', Hocking once again proves to be amongst the best of the Conan pastiche writers.

Sent to recover treasure from a plague-wracked city, not only must Conan avoid its deranged survivors, but battle a deadly disease given humanoid shape. To save himself - and perhaps the world - he allies with a scheming sorcerer to traverse a demon-haunted abyss in a desperate bid to destroy the Living Plague.

Paperback: 352 pages
