Conan Series Paperback Book

Jag tror att detta är Conan den Valorous .

Den dåliga killen Atzel har fångat / kidnappat Aelfgifa dotter till Aelfrith och planerar att få henne att offra i en ceremoni med King Bull. Allt detta började när Atzel son Rorik spionerade på Aelfrith som utförde en hemlig ceremoni (i naken) dödade sedan Aelfriths man. Aelfrith dödade Rorik i gengäld och Atzel svärde veangence som ett resultat.

"But will he attack?" Atzel urged. "He will attack another bull, as any bull will. He will attack a man trespassing into his herd. But it is important that the beast will gore and trample a tethered woman in front of the assembled people."

"All has been taken care of," the man assured him. "Each day a captive woman has been stripped and tied to a stake, and the bull has been tormented by men standing behind her. He has learned to attack them. Now he will attack such a woman on sight."

Det är förbjudet att använda vapen mot King Bull så att Conan brottar det.

Jag har inte hittat en match för damen som är bunden till en pol, men Conan the Gladiator av Leonard Carpenter har han brottning en tjur som en del av en arenast demonstration. Men det var en fråga om tjurbete där de försökte köra en vagn genom en förrädisk kurs gränsad av krokodiler medan tjurarna laddar. Conan slår upp och hoppar av vagnen för att krossa tjuren.

Sammanfattning från Wikipedia:

In the town of Thujara in Shem, Conan becomes involved in a street brawl, in which he injures one Roganthus, the strong man of a traveling circus troupe. A combination of regret over the troupe's loss and attraction for another member, the beautiful panther-trainer Sathilda, leads him to offer his own services as a stand-in for Roganthus. Joining the troupe, he accompanies it first to the town of Senjaj and then across the river Styx to Stygia, where it hopes to become wealthy performing in the capital of Luxor. Stygia is usually depicted as a realm of decadent evil, crawling with sinister priests and sorcerers; in this novel, however, the local priests of Set are portrayed more as a fraternity of knowledge-seekers. Unfortunately, Luxor is lorded over by the tyrannical emperor Commodorus, who condemns Conan's troupe to fight for their lives in the arena against exotic warriors and wild beasts. Conan is disturbed at having to kill opponents with whom he feels some affinity, such as rebel Stygians and the Kushite Muzudaya, and is temporarily converted by a priest and fellow captive to an uncharacteristic pacifism. Exercising his military knowledge, he forms his fellow gladiators into a defensive phalanx at one point. The plot, seemingly building to a climactic final battle, is instead resolved by a catastrophic natural disaster, in the course of which Commodorus meets a fitting fate and much of Luxor devastated. In the wake of this event Conan returns to Shem seeking different employment.
