What's the word for a book that is set earlier in the series, but isn't before the first one?
Elric is back with the first new story from Michael Moorcock in a bit. "The Citadel of Forgotten Myths" takes place between volume 1 and 2. Detailing Elric's adventure to a different world with Moonglum, his more likeable redhead friend. There they find answers to the history of his dead nation, the past of Dragons (also known as the Phroon), and a conflict with a Lord of Chaos.
Narrated by Samuel Roukin, this one got weird but you kept it on track.
Reasons to read:
-Dude still got it
-Adds some extra context for what happens in volume 2 by just stating a theory I had
-Hey that was super weird
-We see Eric get surprised that Moonglum actually has a successful life and adventures without him
Cons:
-Body horror on a scale I didn't expect
