Still seeking Lord Skath, Sonja finally reaches his castle in the Cimmerian mountains -- and it's not what she expected! Castle Skath is now something of an attraction for wealthy visitors from across Hyborea; and its new owner, Rusa Sandak, has sinister plans to keep the gold flowing...
Sonja finds herself in a unwelcome situation and encountering foes who circle closer to a hidden prize. The story is great, with Sonja being the bullheaded warrior I love, her friends keeping secrets, and a welcome new character. The visuals are beautiful, be they showing the characters or the carnage they cause. You can't go wrong with Red Sonja, just don't cross her! Read Full Review
Red Sonja #19 is a solid read with lots of action and intrigue. It's nothing groundbreaking, but it's good fun. As long as I stay away from the mead (and the barmaids), I should be back for issue twenty and beyond. Read Full Review

For me, the art was slightly off this month but the story was great as Lera digs.a bigger hole for herself and Chu/Burnham’s Sonja continues to demonstrate that she’s the toughest woman in comics while also maintaining a strong code of ethics and not walking around in a perpetual rage, unlike Gail Simone’s version. This run has been so consistent and this has been the best story of the run so far.
