      Dorian Hawkmoon und seinen Verbündeten konnten die granbretonische Armee vor den Toren Kamargs aufhalten. Doch der brutale Vormarsch der Streitkräfte des Imperiums wurde dadurch kaum gebremst. Herzog Hawkmoon muss einsehen, dass die Schlachtenpause, die durch Baron Meliadus' Niederlage erwirkt wurde, nur von kurzer Dauer sein wird. Also macht er sich auf dem Rücken eines gigantischen, scharlachroten Vogels auf die Reise gen Osten, um nach mehr Unterstützung in seinem Kampf zu suchen. In den ungezähmten Bergen Bulgariens begegnet Hawkmoon den Anhängern eines verrückten Gottes ebenso wie einem mysteriösen Kämpfer, der ihm unerwartet zur Hilfe kommt... Nach ihrer monumentalen Adaption von »Elric« widmen sich Jérôme Le Gris, Benoit Dellac und Didier Poli nun »Hawkmoon«, einer weiteren Fantasy-Saga aus der Feder von Michael Moorcock. »Hawkmoon« vermischt primitive Wissenschaft mit futuristischer Magie zu einem epischen Werk düsterer Phantastik, das durch atemberaubende Zeichnungen und beunruhigende thematische Modernität besticht.
