Review of The Vanishing Tower by Michael Moorcock

The Vanishing Tower (The Elric Saga, #4)The Vanishing Tower by Michael Moorcock

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


There's not much more to be said about the Elric Saga that I didn't say in the reviews for the earlier books. It's more of the same good fun. Elric's quest for revenge on a sorcerer takes him to all sorts of fascinating places, culminating with three incarnations of himself venturing into a castle ("The Vanishing Tower") that continually jumps from one plane of existence to another. It turns out a "caretaker" has been murdering "guests" and robbing them, making it a treasure trove.

And stuff like that.

It hasn't gotten any better, but it hasn't gotten any worse, either. The intro to the fifth book is quite intriguing, so I have high hopes for that one.
