The ancient races, the Vadhagh and the Nhadragh, are dying. By creating Mankind, the universe has condemned Earth to a pestilence of destruction and fear.

Prince Corum is the last remaining Vadhagh. He sets out on a crusade of vengeance against the forces that slaughtered his family and his race, to challenge the unjust power of the puppet masters of Man: the Lords of Chaos. Along the way he will barter with his soul for the limbs of gods to repair his mutilated body and will encounter a member of the very race who caused the mutilation, the irresistible Rhalina....

Performed by Nanette Savard, Chris Genebach, Tracy Olivera, Nick DePinto, Evan Casey, Todd Scofield, Scott McCormick, Andy Clemence, Thomas Keegan, Ken Jackson, Bob Payne, Eva Wilhelm, Matthew Keenan, Richard Rohan, Patrick Bussink, Terence Aselford.

I've always loved the eternal champion series. This dramatization is an amazing way to experience it and I highly recommend. If you are looking for a dark fantasy set in the multiverse, this is the series for you

immersive

so fun

This book is full of magical wonders on every page and the cast of readers did a fantastic job. I think this book is underrated and in no small part influenced modern fantasy as we know it today. Give it a try I think you will be happy you did.

AMAZING!!

Michael Moorcock’s The Knight of the Swords is the initial volume in his Corum series and the first of the Swords trilogy. Humans are becoming abundant in the lands and the gods of Chaos have become ascendant. Corum’s people are wiped out by a band of marauding humans, and he barely escapes af-ter losing an eye and a hand. From there a series of adventures takes place where he gets replacement parts and must take on the Knight of the Swords to free the first five of fifteen planes from the clutches of Chaos.

Moorcock offers a reluctant hero, forced to become a vicious killer in between lamentations for his lost people. There is a good mixture of swords and sorcery with nearly nonstop action. Humans are presented in a conflicted light with Corum developing a special bond with some and loathing others.

The narration is of a dramatized type with lots of background sounds (horses clomping, music, and lots of grunting), as well as a clear theatrical style sometimes bordering on histrionic.

Traditional sword and sorcery fantasy

Still a great story and well acted (with a few awkward choices. I highly recommend it since none of Moorecock's novels are on here unabridged and this is a decent replacement

Not as good as the unabridged

I'm always amazed by Moorcock's wonderful imagery and imaginative creatures and scenarios.

The story is enhanced by the crafted sound experience.

Very entertaining

It was over too soon. wish it were longer. Writing this review. It was a pain in the butt.

The sound effects were really cool.

I have a love for Michael Moorcock's works going back to my teen years in the early 80s. The Forum stories aren't quite as strong as the Elric books but are still great early sword and sorcery. The transformation into audio drama eternally works pretty well. The narrator is good and the the performances generally are convincing, but with one major gripe: if you turned "Corum screams or yells" into a drinking game, you'd be dead of alcohol poisoning a quarter of the way through. The constant "aaaaargghh", "aiiiigghhhh", and "wahhhhhhhhhh" get tiring and I'm taking off a full star for them.

One major performance gripe

nobody makes an audio drama like Graphic Audio, the voice acting was amazing and really brought the story to life in a way it wouldn't have from just a normal reading. The story itself was good and you won't be disappointed if you have enjoyed anything in the past Moorcock.

Superb performance as always.
