Elric - La cité qui rêve #[nn]
This collection presents the French translation of Michael Moorcock's Elric saga, focusing on the story arc centered around the Dreaming City. It features the albino emperor Elric, his love Cymoril, and his treacherous cousin Yyrkoon, with a cameo by Robert E. Howard's Kull. Published by Arédit-Artima in 1984 as part of their 'Elric: La Cité Qui Rêve' series, it adapts classic sword-and-sorcery tales from the Eternal Champion mythos.
In "La Cité qui rêve 1ère partie," Elric and his pirate allies breach the fabled city of Imrryr, a place of dreams and decay. With his beloved in peril and his loyal servant unable to protect her, Elric must confront his treacherous cousin Yyrkoon in a city that breathes secrets and shadows. P. Craig Russell’s breathtaking art brings this surreal, dreamlike realm to life, with every page rendered in his signature lush, detailed style—pencils, inks, and colors all by the same hand.
Elric gathers his forces for a daring pirate assault on the fabled city of Imrryr, driven by the twin goals of rescuing Cymoril and reclaiming his throne from the treacherous Yyrkoon. With the fate of love and legacy hanging in the balance, the storm of vengeance begins to rise.
In "La Cité qui rêve 2e partie," Elric ventures into the dreamlike city of Imrryr to find his cousin Cymoril, trapped in a deep slumber by her brother Yyrkoon. As he moves through the city’s surreal streets, Elric prepares his servant for the coming pirate assault, setting the stage for a tense and mysterious confrontation.
In "La Cité qui rêve 3e partie," Elric guides his pirate fleet through the treacherous labyrinth beneath Imrryr’s rock, navigating its hidden corridors with the weight of destiny pressing close. A moody, atmospheric journey through a city that dreams, where every shadow holds a secret and the path forward is never certain.
In the dreaming city of Imrryr, Elric and his pirate allies breach the city’s gates, only to find that his beloved has vanished—taken by his treacherous cousin Yyrkoon. With his loyal servant at his side, Elric sets out to confront the man who now holds the one he loves, plunging into a conflict as ancient as the city itself.
In "La Cité qui rêve 5e partie," Elric flees the ruined Imrryr with a fleet of pirates, only to find the city’s remnants lying in wait. The air crackles with betrayal as the past rises to claim them.
