Offutt is the worst of ALL authors of Conan, Dec 31 2007

This review is from: Conan the Mercenary (Paperback)
Conan and the Sorcerer was just terrible and this is junk, too. Offutt is a hack and Ace should be ashamed to publish this basically unedited book.

The worst Conan tale I've yet read..., Oct 7 2000
By Nathan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Conan the Mercenary (Paperback)
Conan the Mercenary, the sequel to Offutt's Conan and the Sorceror, is the worst Conan story I've yet read. The illustrations in the "illustrated novel" are quite horrible, and the text is big, which makes for a short story, essentially, not a book. Virtually nothing of note happens in this whole book, except for the fact that Conan gets his soul back. The action scenes are short and pointless, Conan's whole attitude and demeanor seems nothing like Conan, and overall this book was a waste of the time it took me to find a copy.
Skip this one.
