Description

Journey Through the Multiverse: The Collectible First DAW Printing of The Sailor on the Seas of Fate

Acquire a pivotal piece of fantasy literature with this December 1976 First DAW Printing of The Sailor on the Seas of Fate. Following the catastrophic events that left him estranged from his ancient homeland, Elric of Melniboné, the tormented albino Emperor, is now a wanderer in the Young Kingdoms.

This novel marks a significant turning point, not just in the Elric Saga, but in Michael Moorcock’s entire Eternal Champion cycle. Elric finds himself aboard a mysterious ship, transported through the very fabric of existence and sailing the Multiverse—the vast array of alternate realities.

On this surreal, epic journey, Elric encounters other incarnations of the Eternal Champion, including Prince Corum and Dorian Hawkmoon, figures who share his eternal burden and fight the cosmic forces of Chaos and Law. The Sailor on the Seas of Fate is a brilliant, philosophical adventure that combines Moorcock’s signature Sword and Sorcery with high-concept science fantasy, deepening the lore of the Multiverse and cementing Elric’s role as the ultimate doomed hero. This vintage DAW printing is essential for dedicated collectors of Michael Moorcock and classic fantasy.
