the return to melniboné

[mordenkainen]

does anyone here own this??? I just discovered its existence and i was thinking of bidding on it (on eBay). I'm a fan of druillet's work...
I'd like to have advice from those who know the book.

I've never managed to come across an edition of this so I can't comment on the content, although I'd be interested in knowing how much Moorcock text is in it. It's a 1997 reprint, though, not the original French or English edition so I wouldn't bid too high. Still it looks like it would be nice to have.

You can buy it new from John Davey, the publisher!

The text is all by me, replacing the French text.

[McTalbayne]

Ive never even seen this book. Rock on!

cool. I thought it was out of print and somewhat rare. That's what the seller suggested anyway
I' ll go for a brand new one then.

I wound up with a copy of the original 1973 printing from Unicorn Bookshop, which is a bit rare, but if I had to do it over, I would buy a copy from John and Jayde Designs. The art and text are exactly the same, and it won't be as fragile as a 32 year-old book.

Not adding much, but nevertheless... :oops:

What's the story like?

[Doc]

It's very short, and what you would expect from an Elric story: moody and atmospheric, with a little existential musing. The graphic work is really interesting.
