Dive into the enthralling universe of "The Great Book of Amber," where Roger Zelazny weaves a tapestry of intrigue, power struggles, and otherworldly landscapes. This comprehensive omnibus unites all ten novels of the celebrated Amber Chronicles, inviting readers on an epic journey across realms beyond imagination. From the mystical Amber itself—the one true world casting infinite shadows—to the treacherous Courts of Chaos, Zelazny masterfully crafts a story where every shadow hides a secret, and every mirror holds the promise of adventure or doom. At the heart of this saga is a royal family divided, their allegiances torn between the forces of Order and Chaos. Through the eyes of Corwin, a prince with a lost memory and a quest that could alter the fabric of reality itself, we explore a universe where magic is as real as science, and destiny is written in the cards of a mystical Tarot. Battles of wit and swordplay, alliances forged and broken, and the quest for power that could uplift or destroy worlds—all are intricately woven into the rich tapestry of "The Great Book of Amber." Zelazny's masterpiece is a testament to the enduring allure of classic fantasy, a journey that captivates the mind and spirit from the first page to the last.

There's no such thing as civilization. The word just means the art of living in cities.
