Any good Dark Fantasy book?
My fav topic are the relativism of good and evil, suffering, melanchony and violence.

Already read Elric of Melnibonè and Geralt de Rivia.

What you're looking for is normally called "grimdark fantasy" (really), so just Google that.

Poul Anderson, "The Broken Sword"

it's dark fantasy because it begins with goblin rape and it doesn't have a happy ending.
