Beware the Wrath of Anu!

In a Corinthian city, Conan encounters a past ally and fellow thief. But when Conan and Burgan descend on the Temple of Anu, a hellish man-bull is awakened…and his rage is fully stoked! Conan and Jenna are involved in an altercation with soldiers, who refuse them entrance into the city, being suspious of their buisness. As the group argue, more passing soldiers led by Captain Aron, call for aid as they have cornered two thieves on a rooftop... Conan tussles with a gaurd about to shoot the thieves down and a struggle begins. The thieves help Conan by dropping a brick onto the head of one of the Cimmerian`s assailants. Conan makes his escape with the two thieves, calling to Jenna that they will meet up behind the Temple of Anu... The pursuing soldiers are afraid and cannot enter the sacred temple as the thieves slip inside. Once inside, Conan recognises one of the thieves as Burgun, the Gunderman that Conan believed killed when they both took flight from the destruction of Lanjau (see Conan the Barbarian v.1,#8). His younger companion is Igon. In the temple they meet a fat priest who acts as a fleece for the stolen goods that Burgun provides for him. The priest shows them a shimmering spiral, a stairway to `the very stars`, and from this the group suddenly glimpse a terrifying vision of the huge Bull of Anu, the monstous being that acts as an avenger for the god,Anu... The priest quickly dispels the form,and the thieves depart. they meet Jenna, who seems to take a liking
