Prince of Chaos - reading


Finished "Prince of Chaos" by Roger Zelazny. This is the last of the Amber series which ties up several of the story lines. I am amused that Frakir is a loose end (snicker) that was left hanging (snicker), as I would like to have known more of her fate.

Merlin is a character who probably has problems sleeping at night: when you have to worry about assassins from relatives and enemies, but also the "universe?" That could leave a mark.

It was a good end to a good series. I still think the first five books (about Corwin) are better overall than the second five (about Merlin), and that the end of the series could have spread into one more book.
