Umm... yes, you do see a lot of Elric's world, and there's some interesting history there, too... I won't go into too much detail, but you find in Stormbringer that some of the odd aspects of the history of Elric's world may be because of the same reasons as the "feeling" of the Earth simulations in The Wrecks of Time (a.k.a. The Rituals of Infinity)....
That's one of the neat things about Moorcock (to me)... you can read each story/series by itself and just enjoy it as such; they're written to be read and enjoyed individually. But if you read a lot of Moorcock, you find all sorts of connections not only plotwise, but also conceptually and philosophically... not surprising, with his fondness for allegory....
EDIT: You know, I'd be very curious to see what you think of the novel The Eternal Champion itself..... |
I saw Eternal Champion in his biblio, wierd even Corum has a book in that series.
I geuss i will see why several of his heroes are called Eternal Champion.
Right now i dont have a clue.
A question will i see whats with name Eternal Champion in Corum series since he is called that by fans ?
Or does that appear in other series like the series called Eternal Champion?
