This is the novel that hooked me in and didn't let go. This is the novel were things get really good. Despite all that, I considered them to be 4 star novels.Īs good as those novel were, Sign of the Unicorn was that much better. They had rich characters of noble birth if not entirely honorable dispositions. They were imaginatively written and entertaining. Let me start by saying that I enjoyed the first two novels of the Amber Chronicles. But finding the traitor will be all just easy. He must at all costs to find out who is behind all conspiracy because real world of Amber is in danger. The dark side is obviously in conjunction with some of his brothers and sisters. Web of lies soon begins to unravel, but the more Corwin knows it all becomes more complicated. The murderer is not usually being because he already fought with his kind, and what is worst of all, they know how to move through the shadows. Corwin someone tried to accommodate this murder but although he killed the murderer of his brother he knew they would blame him for the murder because he did not agree with Cain. But the murder of his brother Cain is even more complicated. Corwin is very well aware that he can not trust almost any of his brothers and sisters.

Corwin sits on the throne but things are even a little bit not to simplify, deception and intrigue continues. But this is a solid book where the stories about Amber's Princes are increasingly complicated. The Sign of the Unicorn (The Chronicles of Amber # 3) is solid but is slightly slower than the previous two books in the series. Khun Library of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). He won the Nebula award three times (out of 14 nominations) and the Hugo award six times (out of 14 nominations). Zelazny never entirely fulfilled his early promise-who could?-but he and his work were much loved, and a potent influence on such younger writers as George R. The fantasy sequence The Amber Chronicles, which started with Nine Princes in Amber, deals with the ruling family of a Platonic realm at the metaphysical heart of things, who can slide, trickster-like through realities, and their wars with each other and the related ruling house of Chaos. Most of his novels deal, one way or another, with tricksters and mythology, often with rogues who become gods, like Sam in Lord of Light, who reinvents Buddhism as a vehicle for political subversion on a colony planet. Zelazny continued to write excellent short stories throughout his career. Roger Zelazny made his name with a group of novellas which demonstrated just how intense an emotional charge could be generated by the stock imagery of sf the most famous of these is A Rose for Ecclesiastes in which a poet struggles to convince dying and sterile Martians that life is worth continuing.
