Feared by enemies and friends alike, Elric of Melnibone walks a lonely path amon
g the worlds of the multiverse. The destroyer of his own cruel and ancient race,
as well as its final ruler, Elric is the bearer of a destiny as dark and cursed
as the vampiric sword he carries - the sentient black blade known as Stormbring
er. Containing the novel which perhaps did the most to propel Elric to the foref
ront of the fantasy genre, along with associated short stories and other materia
l, this volume is a vital part of any fantasy reader's library.
