Back in the Thirteenth Century, King Henry III granted a plot of land in the heart of London to an order of Friars known as the Carmelites. In return, they entered into a compact with God to guard a holy object. This sanctuary became a refuge for many of ill-repute, as the Friars cast no judgment and took in all who were in search of solace. Known as Alsacia, it did not suffer like the rest of the world. No Plague affected it. No Great Fire burned it. No Blitz destroyed it. Within its walls lies a secret to existence – one that has been kept since the dawn of time – a bevy of creation, where reality and romance, life and death, imaginary and real share the same world. One young man’s entrance into this realm sends a shockwave of chaos through time. What lies at the center of this sacred realm is threatened for the first time in human existence. Science fiction and fantasy legend Michael Moorcock launches his first new trilogy in ten years with The Whispering Swarm.

Michael Moorcock
Engelsk forfatter som bor noget af tiden og London og resten af tiden I Texas. Han er også en mand som har været en af de mest roste SF og fantasy forfattere, og har skrevet mange bestsellere. Moorcock har skabt masser af uforglemmelige personer, ikke mindst Elric of Melnibone, krigeren med albinohuden og det sjæleslugende sværd Stormbringer. Af andre helte kan nævnes, Jerry Cornelius, Hawkmoon og Corum. Og det specielle ved alle disse (og andre) af hans personer er at de alle er aspekter af hans "Eternal Champion", en helt som bliver ved med at blive genfødt I alle dele af multiverset.
