One thought on “79: The Eternal Champion by Michael Moorcock (Tale of the Eternal Champion vol. 2)”

  1. Thanks for another enjoyable episode. My friend was a big fan of Erekose when we were in high school, but I confess I never read The Eternal Champion until just a few years ago. I thought it was a really good anti-imperialist/anti-war novel. I also enjoyed The Dragon in the Sword. It has some similar pieces to The Revenge of the Rose (such as mobile villages), but held together better in my view.
