In an age before time began when the old Gods were abroad in the Earth, Corum of the Scarlet Robe defeated the agents of chaos and cruelty and made history possible. Now a new age requires a hero. There are new lords who would be gods – Odin and Thor and Freya and Loki. And there are the descendants of Corum’s Vadagh people, now called Elf-folk. There is a portent – a great black bull sometimes seen on the horizon. The bull must be ridden by the one who possesses the Spear of Llaw Ereint. And the one who will come to possess the spear will be one who has a silver hand – it is the hand of Corum.

Pre-ordered! Plus a few others. It’s going to be a Moorcock-heavy year in 2015.
Yeah. I picked up a couple of Moorcocks from Gollancz at Worldcon last year, but this will help get my collection re-established
Yep, I’ll also be getting these. Are they the same as the new Gollancz editions?
(And I confess I’d be happier if they were omnibus editions, instead of charging full price for each individual book; but I’ll pay it.)
How many times and with how many publishers have the books in his Eternal Champion cycle been reprinted?
ISFDB has the publishing history of the Corum books. Click on a specific title to see the history for that title. It’s pretty impressive!
