The Chronicles of Amber	comment	The Chronicles of Amber is a Fantasy series by Roger Zelazny. Originally a series of five novels released from 1970-1977 about Corwin, Prince of Amber, it was followed up by a second series of five books released from 1986-1991 (The Second Chronicles of Amber) about Corwin's son, Merlin.Amber is the one true world of which all others, including our Earth, are mere shadows.A man wakes up in a hospital with no idea of who he is. Among the small number of things he remembers is a great range of skills and experiences, the fact that he heals fast, and never to trust family. When he visits the sister who had him committed, he finds in her possession a strange deck of Tarot cards featuring familiar faces in Renaissance Fair clothes, one of which is his own. Trying to find out more about himself without revealing he has no memories, he gets carried into a knot of family intrigues, counter-plots, magic, swashbuckling, and assassination. After all, just because he doesn't know the ins and outs of whose Throne is at stake doesn't mean he's not a contender.The Chronicles of Amber happily combines different streaks of Fantasy and Science Fiction and all kinds of Other Dimensions. It features both epic elements and a dark-ish Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism.Not to be confused with The City Of Ember. Also the classic Dungeons & Dragons module Castle Amber is not officially based on this series, instead being based on various works from Clark Ashton Smith, though some elements of the module are similar to certain ones from this series. The volumes are: The Original Series (Corwin as narrator): Nine Princes in Amber The Guns of Avalon Sign of the Unicorn The Hand of Oberon The Courts of Chaos The Second Chronicles of Amber (Merlin as narrator): Trumps of Doom Blood of Amber Sign of Chaos Knight of Shadows Prince of Chaos Short stories: "The Salesman's Tale" "The Shroudling and the Guisel" "Blue Horses, Dancing Mountains" "Coming to a Cord" "Hall of Mirrors" "A Secret of Amber"In 1991, the Tabletop Game Amber Diceless Roleplaying was released, followed by Shadow Knight in 1993; the expansion Rebma was announced but never released. There was supposedly a prequel series in 2002-2006 by another author... but they never happened, as confirmed by George R. R. Martin and Neil Gaiman, two friends and colleagues of the late Roger Zelazny. During his life, Zelazny had repeatedly and firmly turned down the possibility of an anthology of Amber stories by other authors.The complete first series was published in an omnibus edition called The Chronicles of Amber. After the second series was written, both series were published in omnibus editions called The First Chronicles of Amber and The Second Chronicles of Amber, respectively. A single volume edition of all the novels has been published as The Great Book of Amber: The Complete Amber Chronicles.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_1869b4b1	type	Unreliable Narrator
The Chronicles of Amber / int_1869b4b1	comment	Unreliable Narrator: Arguably Corwin, especially when his viewpoint on a few characters is contrasted with Merlin's — his sisters in particular. Almost the entire first Chronicle is told by Corwin to Merlin, giving Corwin reason to not be entirely truthful. (Corwin does mention, several times, that Amberites can never trust their relatives, thus implying...) Additionally, at the beginning of the story, Corwin is amnesiac and has imperfect recollections (e.g. thinking Random is his full brother and Eric his half-brother because he feels closer to one than the other) until his memory is restored. Merlin and Corwin's differing view of the Princesses of Amber has a rather simple alternate explanation: they come off differently to the two characters because Corwin is their respected and powerful older brother, while Merlin is a naive and rather exasperating nephew. Of course the two men are going to have very different experiences with and views of the Princesses.

Eric is this to Corwin, although even Corwin speculates that it's mostly a mental block on his part and gets the better of Eric a few times in the first book, in both swordplay and a contest of wills via Trump. Luke may or may not be this to Merlin; they're extremely competitive with each other and have similar backgrounds. Or it may be that he's so damn well-adjusted, despite having two megalomaniac parents and spending half the second series on a pointless war of vengeance, as opposed to Merlin.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_1a237409	comment	Order Versus Chaos: Tied into the many variant universes, though the main differences between Order and Chaos seem to be political. The manifestations of these forces are also sentient, hate each other, and are not very nice to anyone else either. That doesn't mean that the people within either faction get along at all; there's also plenty of Order Versus Order and Chaos Versus Chaos. Further complicated in the fifth book, when Corwin, tricked into thinking that the original Pattern was destroyed, creates another, different Pattern - introducing a new form of Order into the playing field. Both of the existing Powers are not happy about that.

Justified in that they have a record of constantly manipulating and betraying one another like megalomaniac madmen for centuries. Many of them have actually changed and grown nicer and softer (or at least more reasonable and mature) with age (and they keep commenting about that) but it still takes a very long time and/or an imminent matter of life and death for them to even superficially trust one of their siblings.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_1f1248fc	comment	Vancian Magic: Merlin's Logrus sorcery operates in this fashion, requiring Merlin to design and "hang" spells before he can employ them. He's not restricted solely to this kind of magic but he does claim that it's the most efficient and elegant way to use magic. The alternative is to simply unleash raw power and blast away, which is tiring, inelegant, and can be dangerously imprecise, as on a few occasions Merlin has used raw chaos magic only for it to destroy things or kill people that he didn't want destroyed or killed... yet.

However, they seem to be addictive and can be corrupted by other magic - one cabal 'plants' a spikard for Merlin to find which proves to be enchanted with mind-controlling spells, and only the fact that Bleys swapped the corrupt spikard for another keeps Merlin from suffering Mind Control for who knows how long.

Then Past!Corwin gets the mechanical arm from the real Benedict... feel free to bang your head against the nearest wall. But they stand in different places and say different phrases. So it's not necessarily that Ghost!Corwin gave the arm to the same Ghost!Benedict from whom the real Corwin got the arm in the first place. It's possible, of course, that this is a case of yet another form of Another Dimension rather than Stable Time Loop. Who knows?

The Chronicles of Amber / int_391d6577	comment	Sequel Escalation: Corwin has a magic sword and his Trumps; Merlin starts with a magical AI and a Morph Weapon that also functions as Spider-Sense (the enchanted rope Frakir), and he acquires a Ring of Power and a different set of Trumps that lets him reach places and people the other Amberites can't. Oh, and he's attuned to both the Pattern and Logrus, is a sorcerer and a shapeshifter, and can draw his own Trumps. The effect is enhanced by the different narrative styles used. Merlin is a technician who explains what he perceives, what he's doing, and why. "His" books casually explore the technical details of the setting, leaving human relationships as the mysteries to be uncovered. When Corwin's telling the story those aspects are mostly reversed; a more Romantic narrator, he tends to describe his less physical actions more as happenings taking place in his presence. We only really know the extent of Corwin's strength, stamina, and martial skills (which are far superior to Merlin's). His magical abilities are only hinted at in the short stories.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Flora's hair color, and whether Random or Eric is Corwin's full brother all change after the first book. Some of this can be handwaved away by Corwin's amnesia at the time, though. The family members are also much more openly murderous and borderline sociopathic in the first book as opposed to the later ones. Julian attempts to murder Corwin and Random about a week after exchanging pleasant hellos with Random and catching him up on the family news, and Eric has few qualms about executing Deirdre for running away. Although Julian's attitude is explained in the later books, especially as far as Random goes. The Amberites are significantly less confident in their physical prowess in the first book — at one point Flora, Random and Corwin are hysterically nervous about a few thugs — as Random notes later on, he could probably have taken them out on his own by the rules for their abilities that are later established. On the other hand, both Random and Flora display power over shadow that Amberites do not have in later books.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_6a993504	type	Audio Adaptation
The Chronicles of Amber / int_6a993504	comment	Audio Adaptation: A full line of books on tape as read by the author himself. With a somewhat storied history. Zelazny himself originally recorded the first nine books in unabridged format for Sunset Productions, which then all received release in abridged format, complete with weird sound effects and voice modulations (when the narration noted that someone laughed, a short clip of a laugh—the same slightly maniacal laugh every time—played). All but the seventh and ninth of that set were later published in unabridged format. The lack of a read-by-the-author audiobook for the last novel was easily explained—Zelazny died before he got around to reading it. In 2009, after much shuffling of rights and masters, Speaking Volumes acquired the Zelazny readings of 7 and 9, 7 (Blood of Amber) having been partially destroyed in the intervening fifteen years and requiring a stand-in reader for the first four chapters. Finally, everything on record Zelazny had read for Amber had been made for sale. When looking on Audible today, the Sunset Productions readings by Zelazny are absent. They've recently (as of 2014) been rerecorded, with Alessandro Juliani reading the first five and Wil Wheaton, of all people, reading the second five. In light of the Zelazny originals, the 90s fill-ins for the ones that Zelazny died before completing and the recent re-recordings, this probably makes the Amber series one of the most rerecorded audiobook sets in the history of scifi, if not in the history of all literature still in copyright.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_6bcfbc7e	comment	Fantasy Gun Control: Subverted: Everyone knows gunpowder doesn't work in Amber. Everyone wields swords. Corwin discovers a replacement powder (while polishing a present for his baby sister) and arms some troops with assault rifles. It's devastating. It's still such a logistical nightmare that it sees limited use. The powder is produced in Avalon shadows, in small quantities, as a jewel polish. The bullets then have to be produced on Earth shadows where the purchaser has to find somebody willing to make custom ammo with completely inert powder as a propellant, again in limited quantities to avoid attracting the attentions of governments. When you can just stop by a shadow where they had a prophesy about your coming and hand you an army of hundreds of thousands (which was exactly what Corwin did in the first book) it has limited utility, especially after the surprise element is gone.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_6cb4cb70	comment	Improperly Placed Firearms: In Trumps of Doom, a major plot point involves a cache of ammunition that will fire in Amber, and Random and Merlin breaking out one of Corwin's assault rifles to test some of it. The ammunition is mentioned as being .30-30, a caliber that is only found in lever-action sporting rifles and has never seen significant military usage. Corwin's rifles are mentioned as firing from box magazines; the .30-30 round is only found in weapons that load from an internal tubular magazine, where a conventional spitzer bullet can lead to a dangerous chainfire incident. There were a few .30-30 rifles which fired from magazines specifically to overcome this ballistic disadvantage of the cartridge (only being able to use flat-nose or round-nose bullets), such as the Stevens 325/Savage 340 and the Remington 788, but they were bolt-action hunting rifles with low capacity magazines.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_7af365d7	comment	Reality Warping Is Not a Toy: Zig-Zagged. Most of the Amberites seem to think it is a toy, but Corwin has some qualms about treating Shadows as toys... sometimes. What Brand wanted to do to the multiverse was pretty bad: destroy and rebuild it in his twisted image. However when Corwin draws a new Pattern it has a positive influence (or maybe it just tilted the balance of power toward order, which may not have been a good thing after all). In any case, most everyone sees Dworkin's drawing of the original Pattern to have been an improvement over the reality that existed when Chaos was the only pole of reality. Each and every Amberite has the ability to transfer themselves to another dimension (or create it by the act of attempting to go to it). Guess what happens when an Amberite takes LSD.

Several characters use this specific trick in order to fully recover from near mortal wounds by resting in a 'fast Shadow' for a month while only a day has passed in Amber. The same effect works in reverse: Corwin goes to explore a distant realm, is gone for little more than an hour, and then receives a mental communication from a sibling wondering where the hell he's been all week.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_da1c8191	comment	Writers Cannot Do Math: The two-and-a-half-to-one conversion rate for the time differential between Amber and Earth that Zelazny eventually establishes is...difficult to reconcile with the events of the narrative as presented. For just one example: the time between Corwin's imprisonment in the dungeon in Nine Princes and his triumphant return to Amber in The Guns of Avalon is around five years, from Corwin's perspective (nearly four years imprisoned, then some months recovering at Cabra, some more months in Lorraine with Ganelon, etc, etc). But when Corwin finds himself back on Earth after being stabbed and is coincidentally being treated by the same doctor who worked on him after his car accident, both he and the doctor are in agreement that the latter event happened seven years previously, Earth time. According to the time differential, it should have actually been twelve-and-a-half years. Even assuming Lorraine has a radically different time flow to Amber, the four years Corwin spent imprisoned means that the elapsed time on Earth really shouldn't be anything less than a decade.

Others are immature in other ways, such as Llewella and Benedict (who are emotionally isolated from most of their family) or Dworkin (who is kindly enough during his lucid moments but still a bit of a prankster and manipulator.)

The Chronicles of Amber / int_dc1761bd	comment	A God Am I: The first thing that any of Oberon's children do upon gaining the ability to wander through alternate dimensions is usually to find a dimension which they consider to be a paradise, complete with an entire society of worshipers. Considering that even the Amberites do not know whether they just find worlds or actually create them through their imagination, they might be right.

And that's just in the first book - the Courts of Chaos haven't even been introduced yet.

The city's magic enables people to live and breathe underwater. Anything that happens in Amber is reflected in Rebma, which is why Rebmans are dubious about the machinations of the Amberites.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_e8e56799	comment	Blue-and-Orange Morality: When it isn't Gray-and-Grey Morality. The Princes of Amber regard anything, up to and including the annihilation of an entire dimension, as permissible out in Shadow. They don't necessarily approve of mass murder, except of course when it's necessary to their plans - they just don't see that it matters much. We Have Reserves and We Are as Mayflies contribute to this attitude. On the other hand, relatively minor affronts such as insulting another Prince can lead to centuries of blood feuding.

Though some do seem to have a thing for Shadow Earth. Corwin (and Flora) spent three centuries there, and it's theorized it became more 'real' as a result.

The Chronicles of Amber / int_f31926c2	comment	Expendable Alternate Universe: With an uncomfortable twist. In The Chronicles of Amber it is Amber that is real: who cares what happens in all those tag-along parallel worlds (including our Earth)? The passage where Corwin and Bleys harvest a parallel world for soldiers really brings this attitude home, as does Random's attitude to a Shadow truck driver who runs them off the road. Corwin is a noted softy just for feeling bad about getting his duped soldiers killed. When he tries to surrender an obviously over-matched fleet, Eric has them wiped out just to screw with him.

While at first he mentions how throwing raw power at a problem is unaesthetic and barbaric, later on he has no problem throwing rivers of power at anything that vexes him. This may be a side effect of picking up the spikard. It often works, though not when confronting either the Pattern or the Logrus.

When he finally returns from exile, he's quite amused by it, and somewhat surprisingly he finds he rather likes hanging out there, as it's a quiet, out of the way spot that is good for getting away from family intrigue and politics for a bit. He also admits that he's more fond of pissing on his own "grave" than he really should be.
