A classic comic adaptation from the acclaimed fantasy author Michael Moorcock! In this story Erekosë assumes the role of "Clen of Clen-Gar," a noble of the land called the "Dream Marches", part of a greater land called "Heaven". He befriends a peaceful race of beings known as "Angels", who can best be described in one of their forms as flying manatees. In the day-time, they gracefully float through Heaven, absorbing water vapour from the air, and by night they release the stored water as acid rain upon a neighboring land coincidentally called "Hell", whose savage inhabitants live in poverty compared to the luxury of Heaven and the Dream Marches. The angels can also assume an insectoid form similar to human sized ant-men. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

And so he will find himself fighting at the most unsuspecting place of all and finding strange allies that will bring him one step closer to finding his way to his true/eternal love by providing him a passage through weil separating the multi-worlds. There he will come across the mysterious ship that just might be sailing in the right direction.
What I like in these books is that Erekose is champion of balance - order and chaos are both dangerous in their extreme and champions are there to strike and keep the balance between the two. But in doing that champions are constantly sacrificing parts of themselves and question remains how long can they keep up doing what they do.
Art is beautiful, both drawings and coloring, artist manages to bring to life the very other-worldliness of these fantastic lands, battles against creatures of Heaven and Hell are just magnificent.
Recommended to all fans of heroic SF/Fantasy cross-overs, especially those that like Barsoom [and of course to fans of Moorcock's works :)] ( )
