Elric of Melnibone

I've been wanting to reread the Elric books but I ended up misplacing this the first book in the series. It seems like the series has become much more involved since the days of the Berkley reprints and there just didn't seem to be a kindle edition of this particular book. The entire run of these reprints isn't much in page count. I know that some fantasy series have almost as much text in a single book as all six of these books contain together but Moorcock puts more into these short novels than other writers put into a 1,000 page tome of verbiage.

I find Moorcock to be an uncomfortable writer to read. His ideas are rich and his setting evocative and his stories well worth reading but to me they have seemed more tragic than uplifting and I need to be in the right mood for Moorcock's kind of story.
