The 'Dancers at The End of Time' 'The Eternal Champion' and all related works are the works of Michael Moorcock and copyright of the author. They are also used without his permission, but he's a pretty nice guy, and it's not like we're selling anything here so I'm sure he wouldn't mind. If you want, you can ask him when he gets back from his holiday in France. I've got his website address here somewhere...
