In a post-apocalyptic world where sorcery and science live side by side, the Dark Empire of Granbretan, formerly Great Britain, has risen from the ashes of nuclear Armageddon to become the mightiest empire the world has ever known. Now under the despotic rule of the immortal King-Emperor Huon, the empire is expanding its diabolical reach across what was once Europe. Against the backdrop of political intrigue, arcane magic, flying machines and high adventure, one man, Dorian Hawkmoon, the Duke of Koln, leads a rebellion to stop Huon's evil once and for all.As a prelude to the 2019 publication of The Sword and the Runestaff, the legendary unpublished second volume of The Chronicles of Hawkmoon, Titan are proud to present this very special edition, which collects together the first two chapters: 'The Jewel in the Skull' and 'The Crystal and the Amulet' for the first time ever. Adpated and drawn by the critically acclaimed writer James Cawthorn.Taken as a whole, these chronicles mark the first time that the work of science fiction and fantasy author Michael Moorcock had ever been adapted, and heralded the birth of the modern graphic novel genre.
