The Citadel of Forgotten Myths

By: Michael Moorcock

Narrated by: Samuel Roukin

Elric along with his companion Moonglum return, in this prequel set within the early days of Elric’s wanderings, in order to investigate the history of Melniboné and its dragons, known as the Phroon, in this exciting new addition to the Elric Saga from World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award winner Michael Moorcock.

Elric is the estranged emperor of the Melnibonéan empire, struggling with his nature while desperately striving to move forward with his dying empire alongside the constant thirst of his soul-sucking sword, Stormbringer. Elric is on the hunt for the great Citadel of Forgotten Myths while traveling through the remnants of his empire with his tragic best friend Moonglum, as Elric seeks the answers to the nature of the phroon of The Young Kingdoms. Taking place between the first and second book in the Elric Saga, The Citadel of Forgotten Myths is perfect for longtime fans and those new to this epic fantasy series.

Blood and souls for my Lord Arioch!

Once again, Moorcock delivers an epic tale worthy of Elric, Moonglum, and the most treacherous of all, Stormbringer. Phenomenal writing and performance.

Great story

Enjoy the storyline it was great can’t wait to start another one love his work

Still the Man

Probably my favorite narrative outside the original six books. Excellent work. Moorcock's style has improved, and his imagination is boundless (like always).

Depends

Must if you are an Elric fan. Not good for the multiverse intro book. A lot assumes you are familiar with history. Reading is decent, I just got a little confused which character was speaking at times. Overall, a worthwhile read to keep Elric saga going.

Poor narrator

Narrator voice gets very annoying by the end of the book. I have always greatly enjoyed this author. Listening to him drone foran hour about Xiombarg's ranting made me not want to finish the book.
