Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good Adaptation of an Average Book
Review: "Almuric" was Robert E. Howard's only true novel, yet it is in many ways one of his lesser works. It's very derivative of Edgar Rice Burroughs and his "John Carter of Mars" series.

That being said, no one more faithfully adapts REH's work than Roy Thomas, and Tim Conrad is a top notch illustrator. If your interests run to sci fi/fantasy graphic novels, this is a book you'll want to add to your collection. Just be forewarned: if you love REH's Conan, you may not find this to be up the level of the Conan tales.
