These reality- and time-bending stories are snapshots of political conscience from 1969 to 2002 with the enigmatic title character as a focal point. Moorcock’s Cornelius stories have influenced an entire generation or two of writers, and with this latest collection (which contains some of Moorcock’s best tales) showcases his most original and daring character.

Michael Moorcock was always one of my favorites as a kid. This is a collection of some of his Jerry Cornelius short stories. It was okay. I felt it was also a little self involved as well, but then again, that is the basis of the character.
