About This Item
This was the first of Moorcock's "Van Beck" series of novels, with its hero - a mercenary and freethinker - a damned soul in a castle owned by Lucifer. Surprisingly, he is tasked with finding the Holy Grail, the "cure to the world's pain", that will also cure Lucifer's pain by reconciling him with God.
