First mention of Tanelorn ?

[runequester]

What is the first / earliest book, that Tanelorn gets mention in ?

I found a good deal of info in "The dreamthief's daughter" (which is one of the most enjoyable reads, I've had in a long time), but am interested in earlier views too

[Morgan Kane]

earliest published or earliest in the chronology of Elric adventures ?

[runequester]

In order of publication, since I've given up on chronology at this point ;)

'To Rescue Tanelorn...' first appeared in Science Fantasy #56, which would be around 1962 or so.

There is a timeline on this site -

- which has Elric starting his search for Tanelorn at the end of events in 'Elric of Melniboné' and abandoning it at the start of 'Fortress of the Pearl.'

It doesn't say which of those has first mention, though!

[Michael Moorcock]

Tanelorn was first mentioned in To Rescue Tanelorn, which mentions Elric but is basically a Rakhir the Red Archer story. The story appeared, I'd guess, between the first short stories and Stormbringer, but it should be easy enough to find in a list of when the stories first appeared in Science Fantasy.
