		When you've done with the two omnibuses there are still two fine Elric novels to be read, which develop the ideas both dramatically and intellectually (for Moorcock is that rare thing, an intellectual fantast working in a popular mode).

		Elric of Melnibone introduces its namesake, his best friend Dyvim Tvar, his lover Cymoril, and his competent cousin Yyrkoon.
		The most interesting aspect of these books for myself was not the massive genocide Elric commits with Stormbringer or the bizarre adventures he physically and metaphysically sets foot on, but the strong development of Elric himself.
		Although the internal struggle Elric is supposed to go through is extremely weak in my humble opinion, there's the interesting matter of him being the last in a great and powerful line of sorcerer emperors.

	Elevating Elric: Michael Moorcock Interviewed
		The first Elric novel, which wasn't my first novel, but was my first published novel, was done in four 15,000 word sections.
		All my books are carefully constructed and a lot of the initial work is spent working out how to do the structure, so that even my unconventionally structured books are very tight in their underpinning and foundations, as it were.
		Elric has sold worldwide, too, and has remained in print in most of the industrialised countries for years, so I suppose it has to be Elric.

		It was an all-out spoof of the fantasy genre in general, and of Elric in particular.
		Up until this book, I had been reading the Elric novels because they are often held up as classics of the fantasy genre, and because my brother said they were good books.
		The only good thing about it is the really short story about Elric, not the one with him at the end of time which is just strange and really lacks a plot other than resembling a DandD dungeon crawl.
