A review by smiorganbaldhead
The Bull and the Spear by Michael Moorcock

5.0

4.5/5. Moorcock is great at creating a sense of doom, though here very differently than in other books like Stormbringer. Corum is doomed even if he wins everything he fights for, because of his own near immortality in contrast with the mortal women he loves. As usual, Moorcock’s imagination is vivid and engrossing. I wasn’t sure how I would feel about this book, because it lacks the Hand of Kwll and the Eye of Rhynn from previous stories that were some of my favorite elements. However I really liked this book. There are lots of hints about what’s to come that make me excited to read further in the series as well.
