Many Dragon*Con attendees told me how much they\u2019re looking forward to the book because of the art, and that\u2019s terrific. Michael Moorcock is The Man.\n<p>This will be the sixth book in Del Rey\u2019s Elric omnibus series. I did the cover and interiors for the first volume, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Elric-Stealer-Chronicles-Emperor-Melnibon%C3%A9\/dp\/0345498623\">ELRIC: THE STEALER OF SOULS<\/a>, and it\u2019s been an honor to be associated with the art for this series along with Michael Kaluta and Justin Sweet.
