Résumé :
VOLUME SEVEN OF THE WOLF SAGA Five tales from Llorc mac Lughaidh's days pirating on the Southern Seas! KATUVA'S MAP - Llorc gains captaincy of his own pirate vessel and begins an epic quest to retrieve the legendary treasure of Katuva, the Sea Tiger. But first the map must be found... and rivals dealt with. ISLE OF THE NECROMANCER - with the Faolch? beached, Llorc and his crew accept the hospitality of the mysterious Vyrcolac. But what of his silent, cowled servants, and what secrets are hidden in the chambers below? THE SEA QUEEN'S CROWN - driven by a strange compulsion, Llorc directs his crew to a remote, decaying sea-port. There he discovers the secret of the artefact known as the Sea Queen's Crown, and the terrible price its ownership brings. THE LURKER BELOW - driven by revenge, Prince Sahaludir leads his forces against Llorc and the pirate clans. Yet who can tell which is hunter and which is prey? And what of that which dwells in the depths of the Prince's fortress... PHANTOM OF THE WAVES - adrift and close to death, Llorc is plucked from the sea by the enigmatic Captain Decker. But just who, or what is his saviour, and is there to be no escape from eternal wandering? Pulse-pounding Sword and Sorcery in the vein of Robert E Howard! Great books! One of the better Conan-not-Conan series. Poyton does a much better job of nailing the Howardian vibe than most who have tried. - Deuce Richardson ...
