xaymaca 's review for:

Elric of Melniboné by Michael Moorcock
4.0

I've read this book about 3 times and I've enjoyed it each time. If this is pulp, it's the epitome of the art form.
Moorcock brings a darkness to his fantasy that we don't really see as much anymore. It's scary, it's heroic, it's tragic and it's good.


Note: This is the first of the original Elric Saga and it's a complete novel. I say that because subsequent books are more akin to collections of short stories and novellas. The notable exception being Stormbringer, the final novel in the original series.
