J.D. has said it all really.

I never set out to read Moorcock in any order, I found my first (Lord of the Spiders) at a jumble sale and set about finding the other two in that series. whilst looking for those, I found some Elric and Corum, then the Hawkmoon books in omnibus, and so far, apart from the later additions, I've read most of the Eternal Champion books up to The Dragon in the Sword, and have reread the individual Champions in their order, but with no care to how they fit with the others as they are in different planes and spheres of existence where time doesn't run in the same direction.

on a side note. are there any books set in Corum's world that recount the first war with the Fhoiye Miore?
