I enjoyed this more than I was expecting.
I wouldn’t recommend this book to everyone
Elric is brooding and dramatic in a way that I find more fun and camp than annoying.

A masterpiece of the genre. You can clearly see the tendrils of what is to become modern fantasy in this book and I am much better to have read it. Elric is a man of principle, torn between what is expected of him as king, what he truly wants in life and, what destiny his gods and demons have for him. I will watch his journey going forward with much appreciation.
ja juz naawet ne probuje czytac fantasy isanego przez mezczyzn bo to nie ma sensu
A good book. I really liked Elric's character, but then again, he's the only one I liked. It's pulpy and old school, to the point of being dated, but it works well enough, to me at least.
I'm looking forward on reading more of Elric's adventures!

There's many reasons why Moorcock is the master. This is but one of them.

I was able to ignore the background music and sounds while listening to this audiobook but I wish that audiobooks did not include background music/sounds, it does not enhance the listening experience, IMO. I really enjoy the Elric series because Michael Moorcock doesn't spend a large amount of time world building, instead, he tells the story and builds the world at the same time. This allows the story to move along and makes it a more enjoyable read.
