First, the four stars are pretty much for the cover. The story is ok, but the cover is great. If you look close enough, you can almost tell where it looks like both artist split the cover for pencils & inks. As for the story this two-part saga concludes quite well. The confrontation with Fafrd & Gray Mouser, the plans to steal the second jewel and the apparent transport of our two "barbarians" to the future with Diana's trio read just perfect.
