Reddit mentions of The Elric Saga Part I

This may be my old-relative-to-the-rest-of-the-internet side rearing its groggy head, but I'll stand by the versions and the order that I first read:

The Elric Saga: Part I comprising "Elric of Melnibone", "The Sailor on the Seas of Fate", and "The Weird of the White Wolf";

and

The Elric Saga: Part II: "The Vanishing Tower", "The Bane of the Black Sword", and "Stormbringer".

Maybe you'll get them in a different format but those are the six stories that form the core "Elric saga" that exemplified the classic-myth Doomed Hero for modern fantasy; the rest of the works basically fill in chronological gaps between the major events, like the Star Wars EU novels filling in around the movies.

Elric was great! I enjoyed all the strange places he visited. Moorcock did a fantastic job with the imaginative worlds and happenthings that he encountered in his travels. I'm not really sure what to suggest as far as reading order goes, though. I didn't have any trouble finding them, and read them chronologically. There are some collections out there, such as this one.

Hey man I found something for ya. Maybe this is what you're looking for? https://www.amazon.com/Elric-Saga-Melnibone-Sailor-Weird/dp/156865040X

This is one of the series that got me seriously reading fantasy. Yes, you should pick up the Saga collections for the best price. They have a good reading order, too - starting with Elric of Melnibone' and ending with Stormbringer.

If you're looking for humor/parody that plays with fantasy tropes, check out Pratchett's Discworld novels or Robert Asprin's Myth series.

For more straight-forward fantasy that is still an easy read and doesn't require a scorecard to keep track of, Michael J. Sullivan's Riyria books or J.D. Hallowell's War of the Blades books.

For something a bit darker, try Michael Moorcock's Elric saga.
