In the 1960s Jerry Cornelius was the coolest assassin on the Ladbroke Grove block.By the 1970s The Condition of Muzak had won the Guardian Fiction Prize and The Final Programme was a feature film starring Jon Finch, Jenny Runacre, Hugh Griffith and Sterling Hayden.In the 1980s the world’s first cyberpunk continued to inspire a generation of writers including William Gibson, Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, and bands like the Human League.By the 1990s he was up and running towards the guns again in stories like ‘The Spencer Inheritance’, ‘The Camus Referendum’ and ‘Cheering for the Rockets’, which dealt with the icons and key events of the day.At turn of the millennium, in Firing the Cathedral, he responded to the attacks on America of September 2001 and their consequences, to the realities of global warming and global terrorism.Now, in Pegging the President, Jerry Cornelius is back; the ambiguous, amoral, androgynous English Assassin, cooler, sharper, his fingers still firmly on the pulse of the twenty-first century, counting names and taking heads, showing once again that colonialism and despotism — the roots of empire gone sour — do not change. The apocalypse has never seemed more terrifying, never been more fun, and modern life will never feel the same to you again.

Set in a post-apocalyptic Europe, the narrative follows Jerry Cornelius as he navigates a chaotic multiverse filled with decay and surrealism. Engaged in a futile quest to reunite with his sister Catherine, he embodies various personas while confronting the entropy surrounding him. This fourth installment of the Cornelius Quartet, which won the Guardian Fiction Prize, highlights themes of identity and cultural influence, showcasing Cornelius as a lasting symbol of counter-culture that continues to inspire.

Jerry Cornelius is a scientist, a rock star, and an assassin.

The first book in the Cornelius Quartet is the groundbreaking introduction to the misadventures and vendettas of Jerry Cornelius, one of modern literature’s most distinctive characters, the product of a bewildering post-modern culture, and an inspiration for generations of characters since.

Nur Opiate und Magie halten den blutarmen Prinzen am Leben. Als seine Herrschaft in Gefahr gerät, geht Elric einen schicksalhaften Pakt ein: das magische Schwert „Sturmbringer“ verleiht ihm unvorstellbare Kräfte, doch es verbirgt auch eine dunkle Macht, die mehr und mehr von Elrics Geist in Besitz nimmt… Elric ist nach Tolkiens „Der Herr der Ringe“ eines der einflussreichsten Werke der fantastischen Literatur.

There is a sword, forged by the master swordsmith Goffanon the Dwarf, imbued with powerfully magical properties. But this magic can only be wielded by one man. And there is a stallion—a fierce animal that allows only those pure of heart to ride it. The only man worthy of taking up this sword, and climbing into this saddle, is Prince Corum—the Eternal Champion. The struggle for dominion between the races of good and evil is reaching an epic crescendo, and the formidable Gods of Limbo threaten to deliver unending Chaos to the world. Corum’s most desperate quest yet will see treachery, betrayal, wizards, dragons and brutal battle, all of which will decide the fate of the Earth, and of Corum himself.

Almost anyone who has read or written science fiction or fantasy has been inspired by the work of Michael Moorcock. His literary flair and grand sense of adventure have been evident since his controversial first novel Behold the Man, from the stories and novels featuring his most famous character, Elric of Melniboné, to his fantasy masterpiece, Gloriana, winner of both the Campbell Memorial and World Fantasy awards for best novel. Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Michael Chabon all cite Moorcock as a major influence; as editor of New Worlds magazine, he helped launch the careers of many of his contemporaries, including Harlan Ellison, Philip K. Dick, and J. G. Ballard. Moorcock's first independent novel in nine years is a tale both fantastical and autobiographical, a celebration of London and what it meant to be young there in the years after World War II. The Whispering Swarm is the first in a trilogy that will follow a young man named Michael as he simultaneously discovers himself and a secret realm hidden deep in the heart of London.

The Michael Moorcock Collection presents for the first time definitive editions of Moorcock's most influential work, fully revised and updated by the author.

Prince Corum is the last of the Vadhagh, his family and people brutally slain by the Mabden. Vowing to wreak vengeance on the killers, Corum sets out on his terrible quest only to fall in love with a beautiful Mabden woman, and to confront the fury of the Lords of Chaos. For they fear that he is the hero who could tip the balance in their cataclysmic war with the forces of Law and free his world from Chaos's vicious grip. His epic struggle against them and his ultimate victory is only bought at a considerable price. Moorcock's evocation of a rich, dark world, a time of magic, phantasms, cities in the sky, oceans of light and wild flying beasts of bronze is one of the pinnacles of modern imaginative literature. Contains THE KNIGHT OF THE SWORDS, THE QUEEN OF THE SWORDS and THE KING OF THE SWORDS

The earth has grown old, her landscapes mellow, her people lost in a brooding dream. It is an age of antique cities, scientific sorcery, crystal machines, great flying engines with mechanical wings. And the armies of the Dark Empire are relentlessly taking over the once-peaceful city states, ravaging and destroying as they advance, mile by brutal mile ... The Dark Empire has humiliated and multilated Dorian Hawkmoon, but it cannot rob him of his two consuming passions: his love for Yisselda of Brass and his hatred of her ruthless suitor Meliadus. But before he can defy the Dark Empire and win the beauteous Yisselda, he must seek the Runestaff, a quest that will send him into barbaric wonder and perverse evil ... and only if he succeeds will he avert the doom of all the world ... This volume brings together all four volumes of Hawkmoon's remarkable adventure.

On his solo journey, he happens upon a castle where he takes refuge with - and then falls in love with - the keeper of the castle, the beautiful Sabrina.

And so, in exchange for his soul, von Bek agrees to go on a quest for Lucifer, namely to find the Cure for the World's Pain.

Moorcock's second great London novel - and thematic sequel to MOTHER LONDON - returns to print in a newly revised edition. The death of Princess Di heralded a spring clean of the soul. And the dirt we wanted off our coffee tables was the kind of salacious exposure tabloid paparazzo photographer Denny Dover had made a fortune out of. Now he's out of work and moving to the godforsaken wastes of Skerring on the South coast to lick his wounds. A former rock star, this East End lad-made-good lived it up with the best of them. But his childhood friend, hugely wealthy magnate Sir John Barbican-Begg (deceased, allegedly) is resurrecting events from a past littered with dysfunction and greed, sex, rock and roll and a ton of drugs. Denny's life encapsulates the fevered underground of a London teeming with contradiction and ambivalence, subversion and rage. Moorcock's hugely entertaining follow-up to his masterpiece MOTHER LONDON captured the spirit of our age as we staggered into the new millennium.

In the 1930s, Count Ulric von Bek has been harried and imprisoned by the Nazis for a black sword which is part of his family's history - and for the Grail, which his cousin Gaynor believes is also in his care. Almost dead, he is rescued from Sachsenhausen concentration camp by two unknown figures - an Englishman called Bastable and an albino girl, Oona. With them, he journeys to a strange, underground world. And there he meets a figure known to him only from dreams, in which they are somehow the same person, yet separate: Elric of Melnibone. As their stories intertwine, von Bek comes to know something of Elric's past and recent history, and their very beings become one. Sometimes Elric is in control, sometimes Ulric. And the never-ending struggle between Law and Chaos must be fought out in both their universes, with the help of the enigmatic Dreamthief's Daughter. Plaiting differing realities effortlessly, mixing the eternal city of Tanelorn with the rise of Hitler's Germany, Moorcock at last shows us the origin of Stormbringer, Elric's black, soul-stealing runeblade, and Mournblade, its sister sword...

Mysterious fossils found deep under London's streets create a whole new 'heritage' industry - but what does selling London's history mean for the city? In these remarkable stories Moorcock explores the parts of London most of us will never see, and creates a patchwork of tales which build up to a portrait of the whole city. Contains the stories: Lost London A Winter Admiral The Third Jungle Book London Blood A Portrait in Ivory Doves in the Circle A Twist in the Lines The Clapham Antichrist Cake London Bone Stories London Flesh The Cairene Purse Furniture Through the Shaving Mirror

A wonderfully rich and dazzling novel celebrating the people and places of post-war London. The main characters - all considered to be mentally disturbed by the medical profession - are able to hear the babbling voices from the heart of the city in their heads. A loving rhapsody dedicated to London itself in much the same way Ulysses was or Dublin. 'A novel that is intended to be a celebration of my native city. It deals in London life since 1940 to around 1986. While some of the material suggests a possible fantastic element, there is no overt fantasy in the book. I think it's probably my own favourite. And it has a happy ending!' Michael Moorcock 'His is the grand, messy flux itself, in all its heroic vulgarity, its unquenchable optimism. For Moorcock's Londoners, nothing could be more magical than the real fabric of the city they love and the stories with which it echoes' Angela Carter, GUARDIAN

Er ist Erekose, Kämpfer der Menschheit, der die menschliche Rasse vernichtete. Er ist Urlik Skarsol, Lord der Eisfestung, der das schwarze Schwert trug.

Tohle je moment, kdy se začalo odvíjet klubko podivuhodných událostí: slavnostní večeře v domě bohatého vynálezce posedlého svými výzkumy. V těch chvílích spatří světlo světa fantaskně romantický, místy děsivý, úžasný a strnulým rozumem neproniknutelný vynálezcův příběh – neuvěřitelné dobrodružství novodobého Gullivera odehrávající se v buducnosti vzdálené statisíce let. Ale nejen to: zároveň se zrodí první kniha popularizující pojem cestování v čase, a také jedna z prvních knížek přinášejících fanouškům beletrie žánr sci-fi. Když vynálezce zabrzdí svůj stroj v Londýně na prahu 8028. století, bohužel ho nevítá krásný nový svět hemžící se nevídanými výdobytky vědy i techniky a prodchnutý všeobjímajícím humanismem. Z všemocného lidstva, jež si slibovalo „zlatý věk“, zbyly jen roztříštěné houfy človíčků tělesně i duševně připomínajících děti, které se v polorozpadlých zříceninách děsí tmy a každého šramotu v ní… Jde dodnes o jeden z nejpůsobivějších a nejvlivnějších románů sci-fi, jaké byly kdy napsány, román zároveň napojený na vývojovou linii varovně pochmurných utopických děl, jež zachycují lidstvo, Zemi a dokonce snad celý vesmír ve stavu pokročilého úpadku a návratu k primitivnímu způsobu života. Kudy se vydáme, aby k tomuhle vývoji nedošlo?
