Feared by enemies and friends alike, Elric of Melniboné walks a lonely path among the worlds of the Multiverse. The destroyer of his cruel and ancient race, as well as its final ruler, Elric is the bearer of a destiny as dark and cursed as the vampiric sword he carries-the sentient black blade known as Stormbringer.
Del Rey is proud to present the sixth and concluding installment of its definitive omnibus editions featuring fantasy Grand Master Michael Moorcock’s most famous-or infamous-creation. Here is the full text of the novel The Revenge of the Rose, a screenplay for the novel Stormbringer, the novella Black Petals, the conclusion to Moorcock’s influential “Aspects of Fantasy” essay series and other nonfiction, and an indispensable reader’s guide by John Davey.
Sumptuously illustrated by John Picacio, with a Foreword by Tad Williams, Elric: Swords and Roses is a fitting tribute to the most unique fantasy hero of all time. 9780345498670 0.00 Price:

Tad WilliamsShadowheart DAW Trade 01 November, 2011 0756406951 / 9780756406950 Paperback New Ships in 10-14 Day - Subject to Release Date & Ava The conclusion of Williams’ four-volume saga opens with an array of creatures converging on Southmarch: the Funderlings from below, the Qar from in front, traitors to King Olin from within, and the autarch of Xis from overseas. Prince Barrick struggles to retain his sanity after accepting the powers of the Qar king; King Olin, a captive of the autarch, does his best to slay his captor before that mad monarch can carry out his plan to challenge the gods; and Princess Briony is still with Prince Eneas, who brought an allied army to Southmarch. The plot springs from climax to climax as intrigues and secrets are unwound and revealed. The greatest danger is the autarch’s folly, for in seeking to become a god he arouses Zosim the Trickster, a highly destructive deity. Zosim is defeated at great cost, but the bloody messes he leaves require an immense tidy-up. Anyone who has read the first three novels should have no trouble following the multiple characters and shifting viewpoints. For those who have not, a synopsis is provided. The pacing is noteworthy, and with so many characters, naturally the quality varies; but the best drawn are well done. High-Demand Backstory: The previous volumes in the series have been best-sellers, and with eager reader anticipation of the concluding volume, publisher push will be made obvious. --Frieda Murray. 9780756406950 0.00 Price:
