Michael John Moorcock was born on December 18, 1939 in London, England. As a writer, his career began in the fantasy genre with the first stories of what’s his most famous character, Elric of Melniboné, to continue for decades adding novels and short fiction in which he interprets the heroic fantasy genre in a personal way.

Michael Moorcock’s production is very varied and in some cases difficult to label because it mixes genres and subgenres in various ways. His activity is made more complex by his musical projects he alternates with literary ones, and by the fact that in various cases he published revised editions of some works with significant changes.

Michael Moorcock’s activity continued expanding the various cycles and sub-cycles with more or less interconnected novels and short fiction. In recent years he seems to be less active in the literary field and more in the musical field but his production is already so big as to require an encyclopedia to explain the great multiverse he created with all the interconnections among the various universes and their heroes generated by this writer’s extraordinary fantasy.
