Witness the birth of a legend as the untold origin story of Elric and his epic ascension to the throne of Melniboné is finally revealed! Featuring one of the most beloved anti-hero characters in fantasy fiction. This stunning epic saga reveals the untold origin story of the classic sword-and-sorcery character Elric and takes place immediately before the opening of the novel Elric of Melniboné. It chronicles Elric's transformation from a spoilt, arrogant youth to the future legendary Prince of Melniboné, as he journeys through a series of dream quests to the dragon caves of Imrryr, and to realms undreamed of by man. There he must battle with giants and make peace with the leaders of other wordly kingdoms, whilst fighting off the evil intentions of his bitter eternal rival for the throne, his cousin Yyrkoon! Witness the literal making of a sorcerer as Elric learns not only the ways of the warrior, but also how to protect his homeland with the power of his mighty magic and that of his sentient sword STORMBRINGER. Featuring truly extraordinary artwork from Walter Simonson, one of the true masters of comic book art. This stunning, full-color book features some of his best work ever, offering astonishing vistas and epic fights unlike anything you've ever seen.
This book will appeal to those looking for a more ROCK 'N' ROLL alternative to the worlds of Tolkien, with its emphasis on the corruptive allure of dark magic and its exploration of passion, love and lust.

Über den Autor
Born in 1939, Michael Moorcock is an award-winning English writer of science fiction, literary fiction and fantasy as well as an editor and accomplished musician, having recorded with, among others, Hawkwind, Deep Fix and Blue Oyster Cult. Over his career Moorcock has created a literal pantheon of legendary characters, including Jerry Cornelius, Corum, and Erekosë while his most famous creation remains Elric of Melniboné, who first appeared in the novella The Dreaming City published in 1961. Elric has gone on to appear in at least 12 books, as well as scores of comics & roleplaying games and has also been the inspiration of several albums and songs. Moorcock's editorial career began at the age of 17 editing Tarzan Adventures, and in 1964 he became the editor of New Worlds magazine where he spearheaded a 'New Wave' in science fiction. Although Moorcock did not coin the word 'multiverse', he was, however, the first sf author to adopt it as a concept, coincidentally at the same time as David Deutsch. The Many-Worlds theory was first described in fiction by H.[...]. Moorcock first described his more complex Multiverse in his 1963 novel, The Sundered Worlds. His version of the Multiverse has become the standard adopted in science fiction and fantasy as well as by certain physicists and mathematicians. Born in 1946, Walt Simonson is an American comic book writer and artist best known for his four-year run on Marvel Comics' Thor, where he created fan favourite character Beta Ray Bill and for his creator owned series Star Slamers. He also worked on Marvel's X-Factor, The Fantastic Four as well as DC Comics' Detective Comics, Manhunter, Metal Men. During his long career, Walter has worked for every major comic book publisher from Dark Horse to Image and IDW. He also drew the legendary Aliencomic adaptation. And since winning the 1973 Outstanding New Talent has gone on to win numerous awards culminating in the 2022 Inkwell Award.
