Now King of Aquilonia, Conan discovers that ruling an empire is every bit as dangerous as conquering one. Beset by treachery, sorcery, political intrigue, and monstrous enemies, he must once again rely upon his unmatched strength, courage, and battle skill to defend both his throne and his kingdom from destruction.

Conan of Aquilonia continues the legendary adventures of Robert E. Howard’s greatest creation, expanding the Hyborian Age through the work of L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter.

Collector Notes
This Ace Books paperback was the first publication of this novel, as noted on the cover (“First Publication Anywhere!”), making it more collectible than many later Conan paperbacks. Although this particular copy is best classified as a Reader’s Copy because of its heavy wear, first-print Ace editions continue to attract Conan collectors, especially when completing the numbered Ace Conan series.
