THE BLACK CITADEL MUST FALL The mad emperor Strabonus sits upon the imperial throne of Koth, a danger to his subjects and Koth's neighbors alike. When his cousin, Prince Xathomidas, raises an army in rebellion, he finds great support within and without the empire. Veteran legionaries, gold, and mercenaries flow into the prince's camp, including one barbarian sword-for-hire from the frigid North. The towering Black Citadel stands between the rebel prince and the throne he seeks, and when its siege threatens to continue well into winter, the prince orders a small team of sell-swords to find a way into the ancient fortress called Talas K'rith. But the Black Citadel is guarded by things more terrible than walls and swords. THE SIEGE OF THE BLACK CITADEL is the first volume in the Chuck Dixon's Conan series.
