Uminankh's Inn

Conan The Rebel, VII.

It is late here and I will be brief.

We appreciate inns in many worlds and times in Poul Anderson's works. I was all set to summarize an account of Uminankh's place in Khemi. However, it is so dreadful that I will leave it to other Poul Anderson enthusiasts to read it for themselves. I mean this, folks. Usually inns sound comfortable. This one does not. The plan is that Conan will spend at least a week holed up there but I am sure that something else will happen although I do not remember what.

I would not be reading a Conan novel if it had not been written by Poul Anderson. This one is good. He turned his hand to anything, also including the Man-Kzin Wars period of Larry Niven's Known Space History. The multiverse is vast.
