The Library

I love these 1970's Michael Whelan covers for Michael Moorcock's Elric series. No heroic hunks or buxom blondes, just weird and dark with a subtext of BDSM. Like the Elric character himself, obviously.

I read a few of these in my youth, Moorcock is an elegant writer and he's conjured up a rich dark mythology of anti-heroes and deals with forces best not named... Happy to say I own 3 of these paperbacks.

Nice, classic move. I was more of an industrial head, Ministry and Nitzer Ebb etc.

These are really great, thanks for sharing, Marius! Listening to some old Iron Maiden records now.

Omg yes I love his covers so much 🥵

And although it’s a different mood from those, his cover for Martian Chronicles is my favorite book cover of all time:

Quintessential 70’s scifi. 🖤

It was a simpler time, with simpler problems.
