Conan the Barbarian: Xuthal of the Dusk - Robert E. Howard audiobook

Описание: Join me for a full audiobook reading of Robert E. Howard’s “Xuthal of the Dusk,” an exciting Sword & Sorcery tale featuring Conan the Barbarian. First published in the September 1933 issue of Weird Tales under the title “The Slithering Shadow,” this classic Hyborian Age adventure plunges Conan and his companion, Natala, into a decadent, doom-ridden city where ancient gods and ghastly horrors lurk in the shadows.

In “Xuthal of the Dusk,” Conan stumbles upon a mysterious civilization descended into lethargy under the influence of a potent narcotic—and ruled by a sinister, otherworldly presence. Within this labyrinth of opulent corridors and eerie chants, Conan’s fierce determination clashes with the city’s decadent traditions and the lurking monster that stalks its unsuspecting inhabitants.

If you’re a fan of heroic fantasy, pulp fiction, or classic Sword & Sorcery adventures, this Conan story delivers all the hallmarks of Howard’s vivid storytelling—lightning-fast action, ominous magic, and a relentless hero shaped by the harsh Hyborian Age. Get ready to immerse yourself in the swirling sands and stifling shadows of Xuthal, where only a barbarian’s steel and cunning stand between survival and doom.
