	Antony Bek - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Deposed and excommunicated by Bek, the prior secured the king's support; but the bishop, against whom other complaints were preferred, refused to give way, and by his obstinacy incurred the lasting enmity of Edward.
		Another Thomas Bek (1282-1347), who was bishop of Lincoln from 1341 until his death on the 2nd of February 1347, was a member of the same family.
		Antony Bek must not be confused with his kinsman and namesake, Antony Bek (1279-1343), who was chancellor and dean of Lincoln cathedral, and became bishop of Norwich after a disputed election in 1337.

	dreamthief's daughter - book review for zone-sf.com
		Von Bek is the last surviving descendant of Ulric von Bek, the knight who found the Holy Grail in the Von Bek series written in the 1980s, and the Nazis are after the Grail and, ominously, a fl sword.
		Soon, von Bek, is unwillingly drawn into the battle of cosmic forces, and joins Elric of Melniboné to fight the threat of the Nazis who are trying to recover the artefacts that would give them the power they need to take over the world and perhaps the entire multiverse.
		Seen through von Bek's eyes, Elric is also portrayed as a terrifying figure, a force for chaos and death even when fighting on the side of right.

	Reflections on the von Bek Family (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Because of the nature of the Multiverse, a von Bek is sometimes the Eternal Champion, and sometimes not.
		In the Von Bek series, each member of the family dealt with, is certainly the champion, and in others, such as The Brothel in Rossensrasse where Moorcock branches from the more simple fantasy genre, to achieve more complex efects, the notion of the eternal champion takes very little importance in the plot.
		In the first von Bek book, The Warhound and the World's Pain, we gain some hint as to the nature of the Champion, albeit in the language of Christian mythology.

	Dreamthiefs Daughter by Michael Moorcock - Book
		The setting and storyline center around von Bek and the entire book is from von Bek's first person point of view (though Moorcock pulls off the neat trick of transferring a first person narrative to another character, then sharing it, and then back again-- in a plausible manner.
		I will note for the record that the only semi-viable excuse I came up with was that von Bek was actually a guardian of the Grail and not the sword, perhaps having the sword by accident, hence his character was supposed to be the opposite of Elric.
		Or, one step further, the trinity is the albino alone (and Gaynor is truly damned and forever apart from it) and thus represented by Elric, the wrath and the father, Oona, the daughter and redemption, and von Bek as the spirit and salvation.

	The Books: The Dreamthief's Daughter by Michael Moorcock (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Combining the classic von Bek series with the chronicles of Elric of Melniboné, he conjures an apocalyptic menace that ranges from the edge of Creation to the dark heart of Hitler's Third Reich.
		But as the madness of Nazism ensorcells the Fatherland, the family legend draws the attention of Rudolf Hess, Hitler's oldest friend and architect of an insane scheme to control the famous artifacts of Nordic myth: the Holy Grail, the swords of Siegfried and Charlemagne, and other legendary treasures.
		In a concentration camp, the destinies of Elric and von Bek will entwine with that of the mysterious Oona-the beautiful Dreamthief's Daughter.

	Michael Moorcock's The Dreamthief's Daughter. The Eternal Night Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Web Site
		This story begins with a German, an Albino, who is not a Nazi sympathizer in the least, by the name of Count Ulric Von Bek who is visited one day in his family stronghold in the German countryside by a cousin and an old skeleton of a Nazi who come calling with a strange request.
		It seems that they are looking to store away some so-called National Treasures for safe keeping in Hitler's "trusty" hands and are requesting that Von Bek give up two important family heirlooms that he has no intention whatsoever of giving up.
		Their one great nemesis in all of this turns out to be Vok Bek's cousin, Gaynor Von Minct, a man who has sworn his allegiance to countless evil beings throughout the multiverse (including Elric's favorite Duke Of Hell, Lord Arioch) in order to increase his power.
