Like the Witcher or Conan the Barbarian, this series began as a collection of shorts and novellas published for magazine before being compiled into larger length volumes. This series retains all of that pulpy, sword and sorcery feel--- only Moorcock takes it a step further by writing in bizzare psychedellic imagery, as anti-hero Elric exacts vengeance with the aid of his sentient, soul stealing sword. Elric has long been a staple in pulp fantasy, being one of the inspirations for Dungeons and Dragons, and the subject of several metal songs. So yeah, it's pretty awesome.--Zach

 

From World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Michael Moorcock comes the first book in his famous classic dark fantasy series, Elric of Melniboné, brought to vivid new life with stunning illustrations.

In one of the most well-known and well-loved fantasy epics of the 20th century, Elric is the brooding, sickly, albino emperor of the dying Kingdom of Melniboné. With Melniboné's years of grandeur and decadence long since passed, Elric's amoral cousin Yrkoon sets his eyes on the throne and plans a coup. Elric, realizing he is his country's best hope, must face his nefarious cousin in an epic battle for the right to rule.

Elric of Melniboné is the first in Michael Moorcock's incredible series, which created fantasy archetypes that have echoed through the genre for generations. The beautiful, vivid illustrations bring new life to the story and are sure to captivate fans, new and old.
