The History of the Runestaff

The History of the Runestaff - Michael Moorcock Future-fantasy comprising the four books making up the Runestaff series, where the evil Granbretan (Great Britain) slowly takes over Europe before trying for the rest of the world.

Into this mix is thrown Dorian Hawkmoon, Count of Koln, to try and thwart them.

Part of Moorcock's Eternal Champion series; as with the others, the Champion has companions to aid him, magical artifacts and lots of encounters both physical and supernatural.

Very similar to his Elric series in places, with the hero's part in the story being mostly predetermined by other forces.
