A wealth of material for anyone wishing to run nautical adventures in Hyboria... remember that Conan was a masterful sailor and spent quite a lot of time afloat.
Publisher's blurb: "Within this book you will find dozens of carefully crafted ideas, hung up for your barbaric pleasures. Fine wenches dance forbidden dances, a river of yellow gold flows from callused hands, pirates leap from deck to deck, staining their spears red with blood. Night will soon fall on the Hyborian Age, but not before its' greatest hero sails the seas on a path of blood and ruin.
"That road runs from the flame of the furthest south to the bright cold land of Vanaheim in the north. A savage echo of it beats a crimson stain into the shores of the Vilayet Sea, fuelled by mad hate, unleashed from the cruel shackles forged by Turan masters. Along them flows the wealth of nations, bodily ripped from the soft hands of civilized men.
"Out on the seas men and women find an exhilarating freedom unlike anything in the known world. Civilized folk cast aside the barriers imposed upon them by the decaying influences of civilization. Free to act as they would without such petty influences they rise to a level almost equal to that of the untamed strength born in the wildest places of the world. Those brave souls weaned in the uncharted wilderness of the world find a ready home among the wild folk of the seas, although even they cannot imagine the unfettered life of the sea."
