“Michael Moorcock’s work as a critic, as an editor and as a writer has
made it easier for me and a whole generation of us to roam the
‘moonbeam roads’ of the literary multiverse.” – from the Foreword by Michael Chabon
Has
there ever been a hero – or anti-hero – to match Elric of Melniboné, last
emperor of an ancient civilization sunk into decadence and inhuman
cruelty? Elric the albino, weary of life and enamored of death, bearer
of the soul-devouring black sword Stormbringer, cursed to betray all he
loves and to save that which he despises: In the unending battle
between the forces of Law and Chaos, he is the wildest card of all.
Del
Rey proudly presents the fourth in its definitive collection of stories
featuring fantasy Grand Master Michael Moorcock’s greatest creation.
Here is the full novel The Sailor on the Seas of Fate, the script of
the DC comic Duke Elric, the new story “The Flaneur des Arcades de
l’Opera,” essays by Moorcock and others, and a selection of classic
artwork.
Lavishly illustrated by Justin Sweet, with a Foreword
by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Chabon, Duke Elric is
essential for all fans of the fantastic.
