Conan — Blood of the Serpent is a 2022 novel by S. M. Stirling in the Conan the Barbarian franchise. To celebrate the 90th anniversary of the release of the first Conan story, "The Phoenix on the Sword," Stirling was charged to write new Conan novels based upon Robert E Howard's original Conan canon. This is the first.The story begins with Conan as part of mercenary company "in Stygia's dung-encrusted back end," the city of Sukhmet, bored of garrison duty and fed up with the oppressive heat and delays in getting paid. Then he sees a stunningly gorgeous and exceptionally skilled swordswoman defuse a Bar Brawl, and decides to stick around a bit to try and win the attention of Valeria of the Red Brotherhood.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

Bullying a Dragon: A Stygian gets a bit too handsy with Valeria, not realizing this exotic northern beauty is more dangerous than she looks. . . and utterly ignoring the fact that she looks pretty damn dangerous!

Continuity Nod: Conan muses about Stygians keeping pet snakes, considered sacred thanks to the country's official god being Set, but is thankful Sukhmet doesn't have the larger serpents, like Khemi does, and notes those snakes are permitted to wander and devour whoever they want, as avatars of Set, and that Conan has killed one instead of let it eat him. Conan will face another such serpent, and kill it instead of letting it eat him, in "The Hour of the Dragon." Conan reflects on being at the sacking of Venarium, a tale he will relate to Balthus in "Beyond the Black River." Conan believes the difference between his time as a thief and the Sukhmet street thugs is that Conan never accosted folk on the street, instead robbing from rich and powerful in their own homes, including a magician and a fallen god. He did, indeed, try to steal from a place occupied by a magician and what could be considered a fallen god in "The Tower of the Elephant."
