Description:Michael Moorcock: Legendary author of the Elric saga; Science Fiction Grand Master; Platinum album–selling rock star; and controversial editor of New Worlds. In this definitive collection, discover the incomparable stories of one of our most versatile storytellers.Here you will find Moorcock's work at its finest. Offerings include the Nebula Award–winning novella "Behold the Man," which introduces a time traveler and unlikely messiah that H.G. Wells never imagined; "The Visible Men," a tale of the ambiguous and androgynous secret agent Jerry Cornelius; the trilogy "My Experiences in the Third World War," in which a Russian agent in an alternate Cambodia is powerless to prevent an inevitable march toward nuclear disaster; and "A Portrait in Ivory," a Melibone story of troubled anti-hero Elric and his soul-stealing sword, Stormbringer. Newer work includes one previously unpublished story and three uncollected stories.CURATOR'S NOTE (The Best of British SFF Bundle)«Michael Moorcock needs no introduction. He single-handedly reinvented British SF in the 1960s with New Worlds Magazine, created the lasting legacy of Elric just to pay for the magazine, and has influenced generations of science fiction and fantasy writers to this day.
