Elric of Melniboné — proud prince of ruins, kinslayer — call him what you will. He remains, together with maybe Jerry Cornelius, Moorcock’s most enduring, if not always most endearing, character…

Elric: La Saga is an Italian omnibus of the first (i.e. six-title) primary Elric saga — see below — and this combined-title edition is unique, with no English-language equivalent.
