  • Volume I: The History of the Runestaff.  The Runestaff held all the secrets of the barren earth. The destiny of Dorian Hawkmoon, Duke of Köln, Eternal Champion, was forever bound by it.  How was the Black Jewel to twist his fate? Because Dorian regained consciousness with the Black Jewel embedded in his skull and it felt warm, pulsating, comforting.  Then he discovered the terrible truth - the evil black gem was an eye through which his enemies, the Forces of the Dark Empire, could see everything that he saw...all the places he had travelled, all the people he had encountered. And if he refused to carry out their plan to overcome Granbretan, the Black Jewel could be made to come alive...and eat Dorian Hawkmoon's brain.  Cover art by Bob Haberfield.

He saw us, and an articulate cry came from his lips.  His eyes were fever-bright and hatred shone from them...' Originally published as Barbarians of Mars.  Cover art by Richard Clifton-Dey.
