Hi all,

My name's Alex and I'm from Spain. I've decided to join this forum in order to make some good friends here and to stay tuned to whatever is happening in the huge world of Fantasy.

I'm a great fan of Michael Moorcock's work and I'm looking for these two books released by the Science Fiction Book Club (www.sfbc.com). They are 'The Elric Saga Part III' -containing 'The fortress of the pearl' and 'The revenge of the rose'- and 'The Elric Saga Part IV' -which contains 'The skrayling tree', 'The dreamthief's daughter' and 'The white wolf's son'-.

As I don't live in the USA, I cannot apply to be a member of SFBC. So, if anybody here is a member of the aforementioned site and wishes to help me, I'd be more than grateful. Obviously, I'd pay for the books and shipping costs. Thanks in advance,

PS I've got the 'Elric of Melnibone' and 'Stormbringer' volumes released and revised by Moorcock himself in 1993 by Millennium in the 'Tale of the eternal champion series'. They're heavy large paperbacks in mint condition which I can offer for trade. They're now out of print and sought-after. Thanks again!

The usual places I try for specific books like this one, beyondthepale, is ebay LINK (http://www.ebay.es/) or Abebooks LINK (http://www.abebooks.com/). Abebooks in particular do a good trade from the USA and therefore you've probably got best chance for the BookClub editions there. (Having had a look there, there are copies, and quite cheap, too!)

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your reply. I've tried Abebooks but it's more expensive than SFBC and, in addition, they don't have any 'Part IV' of 'The Elric saga' listed. That's the reason why I'm looking for a member of SFBC who might help me. Any info, like yours, is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No problem.

I guess when you're trying somewhere for something as specific as what you want, you could end up paying more than as a member of the bookclub - that's why people join after all!

For now - Here's book 3 on ebay: LINK (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Elric-of-Melnibone-SAGA-Part-3-2-in-1-Michael-Moorcock_W0QQitemZ8327629148QQcategoryZ377QQrdZ1QQ cmdZViewItem)

I had better say, of course, thinking legalese, that sffworld takes no responsibility for actions from this post, etc etc - but it would be nice to help if people can!
