More adventures of Elric the albino prince of Melnibone (not the one mentioned above). Set in World War two and with the main character being an avatar of Elric, Count Ulric von Bek, this is something of a departure from the other Elric stories I've read. As long as it stayed away from Moorcock's usual 'dreamland' material I enjoyed it, but once our heroes arrive in Hameln and pass into another world, I felt that Moorcock was back to the old tried and trusted formula and my interest waned rapidly. For Elric fans only!
