About the book
These three novels set forth the first travails of Prince Corum, of the Vadagh race, in his struggle against human barbarians and elementals of a cosmic sort. Although Moorcock is more famous for his Elric stories, these three novels of Corum are significant '60s-'70s high fantasy, and sword and sorcery of a distinctive kind. Comparable to Tolkien? No, but worthy fantasy nonetheless.
