Traditional Fantasy rated it 10 years ago
This is the first book in The Elric Saga, possibly Michael Moorcock's most classic Fantasy series. It's very much in the sword and sorcery category with magic, magical swords, quests and obstacles and everything that makes for a good adventure.

There is absolutely no doubt that The Whispering Swarm is technically brilliant. The complex interplay of autobiography, real-life history, invented mythology, and pulp adventure is, really, quite stunning to behold.

Though the culprits behind the whole problem with the Balance are not much of a surprise, together with even more banal motif for their behavior, which strangely, makes more sense, their incarnation in this comic is magnificent.

I simply love all the metaphysical discussions and explanations of multiverse, moving through it and everyone that wants to rule the worlds (or defend them and the precious Balance). For that alone enjoyable but there is a special bonus for the Epiphone T640, The Black Falcon.
