Another rip roaring story from Robert E Howard. The El Borak stories just keep getting better and this one is not to be missed. If you've read any of the others you know what to expect. If not just buckle your seatbelt and get set for a wild ride of bullets, fist fights and crazy savages.
Terrific tale with Howard's great hero El Borak discovering a lost group of ancient Greeks. He helps them to fight off a horde of bad guys.......monumental battle ensues!!!!!!! Action plus
