Produktbeschreibung

The Fire of Asshurbanipal by Robert E. Howard is a thrilling adventure story with elements of supernatural horror, blending historical mystery with the timeless allure of lost treasures. Set in the deserts of the Middle East, the tale follows two treasure hunters—Steve Clarney, an American adventurer, and Yar Ali, his Afghan companion—on their dangerous quest to uncover an ancient artifact known as the Fire of Asshurbanipal. The story begins with Clarney and Yar Ali trekking across the desolate sands, guided by old legends and rumors of an ancient, hidden city. Their goal is to find the fabled Fire of Asshurbanipal, a mystical gem that once belonged to the legendary Assyrian king. This gemstone is said to possess extraordinary powers, but it is also surrounded by ominous warnings of death and destruction for those who dare to seek it. After braving the perilous desert, the duo stumbles upon the long-lost ruins of a once-great city. Inside, they discover the ancient palace of Asshurbanipal and the fabled Fire itself, glowing with an eerie and unnatural light. But the treasure is not unguarded—its supernatural protector, an ancient and malevolent force, still lingers in the cursed city. As Clarney and Yar Ali prepare to take the gem, they find themselves confronted by both human enemies and the terrifying supernatural entity that haunts the ruins. The tension builds as they struggle to escape with their lives, facing not only the dangers of the desert but the cursed power of the Fire of Asshurbanipal. Howard's narrative mixes fast-paced action with an eerie atmosphere, evoking the feeling of a dark and forgotten past that refuses to stay buried. The Fire of Asshurbanipal is a classic example of Howard's ability to weave adventure with horror, exploring the fatal consequences of human greed and the mysteries of ancient civilizations.
