Capturing the electric short fiction energy that led Robert E. Howard to be one of the top fantasy writers of the century, with exclusive serialized eBook stories starring Conan, Solomon Kane, and more by many of today’s top writers in fantasy and sword-and-sorcery.

Sailing together on the Tigress, Conan and Bêlit hijack and plunder a ship. Victorious but with a damaged ship to show for it, the pirates return to their secret island haven. They arrive to find their village under attack, not by men, but hideous things—part men, part aquatic creatures.

Powerful but ungainly, these bloodthirsty frog-men are faster and even more formidable in the water. Conan, Bêlit and her crew watch helplessly as the abominations abscond with the women of their village. Unable to give chase due to their damaged ship, Conan and Bêlit swear vengeance on these monstrosities.
Henry Herz has authored numerous fantasy, sci-fi, and horror short stories, has edited seven anthologies, including the upcoming YA fantasy anthology, WINK, and has written twelve picture books including the acclaimed I AM SMOKE and the upcoming I AM GRAVITY. He's a member of SCBWI and IAMTW and loves moderating author panels. Henry lives in San Diego with his wife Julie and trusty hound, Iroh. Find him at www.henryherz.com
