Review "[Moorcock] can gleefully give you all the formulae of every kind of story there ever was, because hes tried and tested all of them ... the master story-teller of our time."--Angela Carter author of The Bloody Chamber, and Nights at the Circus"[Moorcock] is the greatest writer of post-Tolkien British Fantasy."--Michael Chabon, Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalaier & Clay, and Telegraph Avenue"Moorcock as the most important successor to Mervyn Peake and Wyndham Lewis... The vast, tragic symbols by which Moorcock continually illuminates the metaphysical quest of his hero are a measure of the authors remarkable talents"--J.G.Ballard, author of Empire of the Sun, Crash, and The Drowned World"Moorcocks influence is nothing like Tolkiens, at least on the surface, but his vision of a speculative-fiction genre that can be psychologically complex is evident in how very sophisticated some of it has become--from "True Detective" to Jeff VanderMeer, from David Mitchell to "Under the Skin."--The New Yorker Review Quote "[Moorcock] is the greatest writer of post-Tolkien British Fantasy."--Michael Chabon, Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalaier & Clay , and Telegraph Avenue Details ISBN1534445749 Author Alan Moore Short Title The White Wolf Language English ISBN-10 1534445749 ISBN-13 9781534445741 Format Hardcover Subtitle The Elric Saga Part 3 Series Number 3 Series Elric Saga Year 2022 Publication Date 2022-10-25 Pages 944 UK Release Date 2022-10-25 DEWEY 813.54 Audience General Publisher S&s/Saga Press Imprint S&s/Saga Press Illustrations Illustrations We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
