Fantasy legend Michael Moorcock's heroes of the multiverse have been lauded as some of the most iconic characters of fantasy. Among them, Dorian Hawkmoon is one of the best loved. In an alternate far future, Hawkmoon is pulled unwillingly into a war against the armies of the Dark Empire. Antique cities, scientific sorcery, and crystalline machines serve as a backdrop to this high adventure.

This omnibus collects The Sword of the Dawn and The Runestaff, two novels in Moorcock's acclaimed Hawkmoon series.

The Sword of the Dawn

Dorian Hawkmoon's quest to destroy the Dark Empire leads him onto the path of a man who possesses a rare ring that allows men to travel through time. Hawkmoon uses this ring to travel to the far future, where he must battle the Pirate Lords and claim the Great Sword of the Dawn, which can end the Dark Empire once and for all.

The Runestaff

Hawkmoon's mission leads him to Dnark, the home of the Runestaff. Now Hawkmoon must take up the Runestaff in a final effort to vanquish the Dark Empire of Grangretan.
