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...

The New York Times Book Review - Charles Yu
Moorcock's novel is fantasy of the high kind: faraway and long ago and weirder than you expect it to be…As the first in a series, the book has a lot of track to lay, and Moorcock does it ably, giving depth with a litany of names, variants, lore, adding in the color and shading until he achieves a kind of faraway, never-ever quality to the fantasy.From the Publisher
"Corum’s story spans multiple planes of existence and includes gods, demigods, and elements of older flavor of mythic fantasy." - Barnes & Noble"Despite the new races, strange names, and exotic locations it is incredibly easy to be swept away into the adventure." - Portland Book Review
