Today's quote had to be about either Michael Moorcock's Elric or Kelley Armstrong's Hope Adams. Elric won because he is himself a creature of #Chaos, although he often fights it to serve Law or the Cosmic Balance itself. #QuotsyNov17
#LibraryHaul Every visit to the library I tell myself "no more books until you return some." Every visit I come back with books. I just can't resist wandering the stacks and picking out what catches my eye.
so-soThis is not a review of the Elric stories (which are excellent). Rather, it is a brief commentary on Del Rey's slapdash organization of the material. In their six volume series, Del Rey published the stories out of order. Furthermore, the collection is incomplete. They left out a lot of material.
I recommend tracking down the Orion/Gollancz UK publications from 2013/2014. They published all of the stories in seven volumes and in order.
