Charting the adventures of Dorian Hawkmoon, a version of the Eternal Champion, it takes place in a far-future version of Europe in which the insane rulers of the Dark Empire of Granbretan (the name given to what was once Great Britain) are engaged in conquering the continent.

Written between 1967 and 1969, it is considered a classic of the genre, and has proven highly influential in shaping subsequent authors’ works.
