Relation As Books The Second Chronicles of Amber (The Chronicles of Amber #6-10 )

In all the universe, Amber is the only true world. All others are Shadows, playthings for Amber's royal family -- sibling rivals who vault between worlds using tarot-like Trump cards and walk the labyrinthine Pattern, which confers the power to manipulate reality. Far removed from his native land, Merlin, son of Corwin of Amber and Dara of Chaos, has tried to build himself a normal Earthly life -- a life free of the cabals, vendettas and feuds that have torn his family apart. And he's done quite well for himself. . . except when it comes to April 30th. Because on that day, every year for the past eight years, someone -- or something -- has tried to kill him. Gunshots. Fires. Gas leaks. Car accidents. This year's attempt comes in the form of a huge, dog-like beast that tears his former girlfriend to bits -- and tries to do the same to him. Somebody must have it in for him, but who?

Assessment Epithetical Books The Second Chronicles of Amber (The Chronicles of Amber #6-10 )

Audiobook review. The second 5 of the 10 Amber books were written a number of years after Zelazny was past the peak of his powers and while they have similar flavor to the first 5, I find them a bit bloated, less zippy, D&D Monty-Haulish in their power inflation (a bit like the second filmed star wars trilogy ie episodes 1-3) and really not a worthwhile use of my time. I have twice waded in to them, once in print a number of years ago and now in audio, only to give up before the end. Not

The two volumes of this edition of the five-novel series turned out to be divided at a pretty natural break. As the first one left matters, Eric is dead and Corwin is de facto king of Amber. But his conscience is getting stronger than his ambition - quite a new development - and being king isn't all he cares about now. So he's become much more of a conventional hero than he was in the first part of the series. At the same time, the plot becomes much less of a conventional hero quest and more of

A very disapointing follow up to the first (and fantastic) Amber series. Has the distinct feel of an author trying to mine his previous success, but to no avail. Tired and forced - stick to the first chronicles and leave your memories of Amber untainted.

Please read the full review on Weighing A Pig(...)Im disappointed to report that I agree with those who think this second part of The Great Book Of Amber doesnt live up to the Corwin cycle. As it has been a couple of years since Ive read that first cycle, its hard to compare the two in a detailed manner. I also cant rule out that my tastes have shifted a bit, resulting in me simply liking these books a bit less than I would have if Id just continued with the second series right after the first.

Roger Zelazny's First Chronicles of Amber is a truly towering work in the field of science fiction and fantasy; his Second Chronicles of Amber is not.The First Chronicles follows Corwin as he regains his memory, discovers his role as one of the Princes of Amber - the one true city in all of creation - wrangles his feuding relatives, travels on an epic quest, and fights against the the Courts of Chaos - Amber's polar opposite - in a war that has consequences for the entire universe. It is

Finished the Amber series, my first book by Roger Zelazny, one of my dad's favorite authors. A good blend of science fiction and fantasy. Although a bit dated, I was sad to see this author died so young. But anyways, it was a great fantasy epic, with twists about the bad guy I didn't see coming. If you like fantasy, and have the wherewithal to read through something a bit dated, you will like this series.

This would be a 1/5 if not for the fact that its written in a readable manner. The only thing that made me go through it is the fact that the writing style was ok. Unispired, all over the place and boring... but ok.This book took a lot out of me to finish.In fact I'm not even sure I've got enough strength to review it.So I'll just say that you can feel free to skip it entirely, because of the following reasons:1) its story could've been told in half the amount of pages2) the other half is one or
