paperback

I found this to be a pretty standard story about a solution to family defence. the character is rather flat, but given that he's a sociopath, I shouldn't have been surprized. I'm sorry that RZ has never regained the heights of "Lord of Light" and "Creatures of Light and Darkness". ( )

My least favorite among Zelazny's works. The tone kind of reminded me of Doorways in the Sand, a much better novel I'll have to get around to reading again. ( )

A Mafia hit man gains immortality through freezing his body & cloning. He then guides the human race toward a more peaceful existence. When trouble strikes, he is forced to confront pieces of himself that he thought were no longer needed & face down the enemy.Very well done & uniquely Zelazny. An interesting SF plot is turned to excellent through his masterful writing style. ( )
