Best Fantasy of all Time

My favorite author. Fantasy adventure, great character depth, and fast paced. Prose brilliant in its simplicity; without adjective and adverb boat that plagues most modern fantasy. Elric is perhaps the first true anti-hero of the genre, calling upon Ariach, dark lord of chaos, in drunken bloodlust as Stormbringer devours hapless souls. But at the same time, exhibits such intellectual depth on the nature of humanity, the multiverse, anarchy and law, with a brevity and seeming carelessness that never slows down the story.

No fluff, elves, dwarves, and fantasy cliche'. No boring exposition to suffer through. Start with Volume 1. I love you Michael Moorcock! #1 Fan. It is a joy to read/listen.

Very well done

I have been a fan of the elric series for many years. this audiobook is a great presentation and I found a very enjoyable.

older fantasy

it's a style a little different than what you see today but this is a masterpiece if it's time

ah to be young again...

stormbringer was one of the first fantasy books I read as a kid,and I was so happy to see it reappear (reincarnate?) in audiobook form. the pathos is still as I remember it,and the story is truly timeless.

now please have "dancers at the end of time" in audiobook ! looking forward to it :)

great story bad narrator

have been a huge fan of the eternal champion for dewcades , but the narrator gets the main character's name wrong dozens of times and makes it almost insufferable to listen to. he calls Elric, Eric so many times, you start waiting for it rather than enjoying the story.
