Book Description
In this classic fantasy novel a warrior sets out to win a deadly contest to rule a prehistoric empire—and take the hand of its beautiful priestess. The lost city of Opar was first introduced to readers in the Tarzan novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Hidden deep in Africa, it is a place shrouded in mystery and awash with incredible riches. In Hadon of Ancient Opar, Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author Philip José Farmer reimagines this forgotten land, revealing the heroes who lived in its prehistoric golden age . . . A poor young man of great ambition, Hadon leaves his village to enter the great games of Klakor—a bloody contest in which only the strongest and most cunning warrior will survive. He seeks the ultimate prize: to rule the Khokarsan Empire alongside the powerful High Priestess. But his quest for the throne leads him beyond the empire’s edge, where he finds himself embroiled in civil war.

Brueckel and John Harwood, authors of "Heritage of the Flaming God," the monumental essay that inspired the Khokarsa series. After years of exile in the Wild Lands, the giant warrior Kwasin of Dythbeth returns to the mighty Khokarsan Empire seeking the oracle's forgiveness, only to find his native land torn asunder in a bloody civil war. The tyrannical King Minruth has usurped the throne from his daughter Awineth and, allied with the priests of the sun god Resu, overturned the beneficent, centuries-old rule of the priestesses of the goddess Kho. His spoiled cousin Hadon having fled with his companions to far-flung Opar, Kwasin soon finds he will have to take up the cause alone against Minruth the Mad. Wielding his massive Ax of Victory, forged from the heart of a fallen star, Kwasin sets out to reconquer the throne of Khokarsa. But when he finds himself caught between a vengeful queen who seeks to control him and a conspiring priest who wants him dead, Kwasin must decide between reining in his unruly passions or unleashing them in a fury that could hurl the empire into oblivion. For the high priestess has decreed that unless Kwasin can master his wild nature and stop King Minruth before he attains immortality in an unholy ritual of the sun god, Great Kho will destroy all the land!"
