Michael Moorcock's six-book "Elric Saga" is one of the great classics of high fantasy, dark fantasy, and sword & sorcery. Its characters, environments, and obstacles are among the genre's most memorable and influential. Elric is the archetypal anti-hero and one of the most recognizable figures of the genre.

This is volume one of the epic saga of Elric, the albino emperor of the Dragon Isle. Elric rules the island empire of Melniboné, the homeland of his strange semi-human race, from the Ruby Throne in dreaming Imrryr. The Melniboneans ruled the world with massive battle fleets, fighting dragons, and sorcery from the pits of hell. Now they are confined to their island, living in decayed splendor.
