Book description
In the velvet void between dream and doom, where empires crumble like ash in the wind, walks Elric-pale prince of perpetual twilight. Moorcock's melodic prose weaves spells stronger than Stormbringer's crimson hunger, each syllable dripping with the fatal beauty of Melniboné's last emperor.
Here, in this third chronicle, our albino antihero stumbles through realms where gods gamble with mortal souls, his drug-dulled senses heightened by the black blade's terrible embrace. The narrative flows like wine from a poisoned chalice-intoxicating, inevitable, beautiful in its destruction.
Moorcock's literary alchemy transforms sword and sorcery into something transcendent. His words dance with dark elegance, each phrase a small death, each chapter a descent into gorgeous madness. The author who once edited New Worlds understands perfectly how consciousness shifts between reality and reverie-his sentences mirror that fluid transformation.
Steve Ellis's illustrations punctuate the text like visual haikus, capturing moments of sublime horror. Holly Black's foreword serves as both gateway and warning-she knows this territory well, having walked in the same shadows that birthed Elric's eternal torment.
This isn't merely fantasy literature; it's incantation disguised as storytelling. Moorcock conjures worlds where law and chaos wage their eternal war, using Elric as both pawn and prophet. The result resonates with the frequency of myth-ancient, inevitable, and utterly compelling.
For those who seek beauty in bleakness, truth in tragedy, and magic in the marriage of language and legend-this audiobook offers sanctuary. Let Moorcock's words wash over you like storm-tide, carrying you toward shores both terrible and transcendent.

Very pleased with ListenBook. A decent listen overall. The narration was clear, though some character voices sounded similar. The story was interesting but had moments where it dragged slightly. Still, it was a good way to pass the time. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.
