There is a sword, forged by the master swordsmith Goffanon the Dwarf, imbued with powerfully magical properties. But this magic can be wielded by only 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.

Performed by Nanette Savard, Chris Genebach, Thomas Keegan, Tim Getman, Nora Achrati, Danny Gavigan, Andy Clemence, Lawrence Redmond, Christopher Graybill, Bradley Smith, Thomas Penny, David Jourdan, Chris Stinson, Tia Shearer, Matthew Bassett, Alexander Strain, Terence Aselford.

Michael Moorcock’s The Sword and the Stallion completes his second Corum trilogy and brings closure to all the hints and prophecies that peppered the earlier installments. As the cold continues its relentless march across the human lands, Corum and the dwarf giant’s sibling venture to a strange island in search of aid for their battle with the cold creatures. What they find is more monsters not of this plane that can alter time and space. Corum eventually escapes and saves the day, but gradually all the prophecies come home to roost.

Moorcock relies on a bit of deux ex machina for resolving all the traps that Corum rushes headstrong into. In the end Corum is a transitional hero that does away with all the gods that get in the way of humans dominating their plane of existence.

The narration is of a dramatized type with lots of background sounds (horses clomping, music, and lots of grunting), as well as a clear theatrical style sometimes bordering on histrionic.

Corum finish his quest to beat the cold
