Synopsis

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

Goodreads review by Craig on June 03, 2020

The Sword and the Stallion is the sixth book in the Corum series and the final book in the second trilogy. The news of a second trilogy came as a surprise to readers of the first three volumes because The King of the Swords, the concluding book of the trilogy, ended with: "This ends the third and fi......more

Goodreads review by Joseph on April 07, 2021

Let me begin by saying how nice it is to be able to read an entire fantasy trilogy in the space of about five days. Of course, that's because the entire trilogy in this case clocks in at less than 400 pages, which by contemporary standards barely constitutes the "What Has Come Before" section of you......more

Goodreads review by Michael on September 13, 2022

Corum's final stand against the wrathful Cold Gods known as the Fhoi Myore reaches its bitter conclusion. Friends become enemies and enemies become friends in the final battle to decide which races will rule and which races will perish. Wielding the accursed magic sword Traitor and riding upon the a......more
