The one good thing covid did for me was make it to where I work from home most of the time which gives me more time to read. After I finish some borrowed books and other books in my immediate stack I was thinking I’ll read either the Elric books or the Witcher books. I’ll eventually read both but which one should I start with?

I actually prefer Donaldson's Mordant's Need (Mirror of Her Dreams and A Man Rides Through) to Covenant, which I do like, but it's been awhile since I read it all the way through.
I remember the mirror series felt more cinematic and "lighter" than covenant which isn't hard because the first covenant series is like wading through a tar pit. I think you are right that might be a better intro to SRD.
Agreed, but it has enough Donaldson sensibilities to prepare the reader. The villain is a true bastard.
