The battle between Law & Chaos continues
3 Mar 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is the conclusion of Moorcock's Sword's Trilogy,although the Chronicles of Corum are continued in a further three novels, starting with 'The Bull and the Spear'.
After vanquishing two of the sword-rulers, in this book Prince Corum moves on to the most powerful; the King of Swords. He is accompanied again by the eternal companion of champions Jhary-a-conel. Corum also receives the help of other heroes, which readers of Moorcock's other Eternal Champions series will recognize.
This book brings the trilogy to a satisfying conclusion, but again the pacing is so fast that it has the effect of making the struggle against Chaos seem to easy for Corum, as he seems to get out of jams as fast as he gets in them, usually with supernatural help.

Another important installment of the Eternal Champion series, and the third book in the first Corum trilogy.
Corum Jhaelen Irsei, ever resourceful, has taken out the Queen of the Swords, and now has to face the most powerful of this suit, the King.
He is most definitely not without help and resources, as here, he joins to become the ultra-hero Three-Who-Are-One, with both Elric and Erekose.

Elric I love, but Corum is better...
13 Sep 1999
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I picked up this book at a book sale because it was by Michael Moorcock, writer of the Elric 'saga'. I read it and found myself completely entwined in this other similar yet totally different series about Law vs. Chaos. The ending made me laugh, the characters were as beautiful as anything in all of Elric, and one of the parts relates (perfectly) to part in another Elric book... Sailor on the Seas of Fate, I think. Beautiful. I love it all...
