![]() I definitely enjoyed it more now some decades after the first time I tried reading it. ![]() Overall it was enjoyable to escape and read this again. They’re successful but the story concludes with a bittersweet ending, and an opening to continue the series. They find out that at least one of the evil scientists from Granbretan survived the last battle and is manipulating time and space for revenge. He heads out to investigate and begins an adventure with his five years’ dead companions, or their doppelgängers. In this Hawkmoon is living his life, enjoying peace and calm with his wife and children, when there are rumors that his dead companions are out in the marshes outside town, calling him a traitor and blaming him for their deaths, turning his fellow living citizens against him. It picks up with Hawkmoon five years after the events of the Runestaff series of books, after Hawkmoon and his companions, not all of whom survived, brought down the evil Granbretan empire. ![]() ![]() But shopping for used books I thought I’d give it another try, now that I’m several decades older. I was a big Michael Moorcock fan as a teenager in the 80’s, reading and rereading most of his books numerous times, but the Castle Brass series was one I just couldn’t get into. “Count Brass” by Michael Moorcock was better reading this time around than the first time. ![]()
