THE BULL AND THE SPEAR - CORUM #4
Translation Thomas Mastakouris
Eighty years have passed since Corum Jaelen Irsay, the Prince of the Scarlet Robe, fought and defeated the Sword Rulers, the terrible gods of Chaos.
A hero in a world no longer in need of heroes, unchallenged in a mortal world, having lost his loved ones in the relentless passage of time, he will almost with relief accept the call of another, future, age, to help the distant descendants of his now-dead wife; to a world that bears little resemblance to his own – a world immersed in the eternal winter brought with them by the terrible Fhoi Myore, beings with supernatural powers from another dimension, who are slowly but inexorably wiping out all life on earth.
Only the ancient sacred treasures of the Mamden can stop them and their undead servants, and Corum must seek out Spear Brijonak and the Black Bull of Krinanas on a deadly quest.
