Conan and the Grim Grey God is a fantasy novel written by Sean A. Moore featuring Robert E. Howard's seminal sword and sorcery hero Conan the Barbarian. It was first published in trade paperback by Tor Books in November 1996; a regular paperback edition followed from the same publisher in November 1997.
Conan seeks the statue of the Grim Grey God, supposedly carved from a single immense pearl, a fabled treasure reputedly buried in the ruined desert city of Nithia. But rivals also seek the plunder of Nithia, including Jade, empress of the thieves' guild, Toj the assassin, and two necromancers convinced that the statue will give them the power to restore the reign of darkness over the world, as in the days of the ancient empire of Acheron.
