Il segreto del talismano

A man roams the frontier recruiting those who have nothing left to lose, and every evening he stages a cruel spectacle of death, where modern-day gladiators face each other in fights without rules. The name of the unscrupulous impresario is Elias Van Dergaard, and in his service there is a champion no one has ever managed to defeat, a giant called Shamrock.

Around his neck, the massive fighter wears a strange amulet, the same one Elias stole from a Dakota shaman after killing him, and which the young warrior Brave Wolf wants to recover, believing it possesses the magical power to make its bearer invincible. Zagor joins forces with Brave Wolf to avenge the murdered shaman and put an end to Van Dergaard’s killing machine.

Van Dergaard has found protection in Ruger Town, a violent city ruled by a corrupt sheriff, where the only law that matters is the law of the strongest. There, where challenges are fought to the death and where many lives intersect in search of a reason to kill with bare hands, Zagor too steps into the fighting arena, before the final showdown with the ruthless impresario and his allies.
