Nearly as good as the first book. Corwin has discovered his true nature as a Prince of Amber, beings able to create any sort of realities through they're will. Having escaped his prison, he begins to plot his next attempt at the throne. This time, he has a secret weapon.
This story has more elements of fantasy then the first, including a knight and castle. :-) Also there is the struggle against this evil that corrupts the land, and an encounter with a mysterious and beautiful lady. Very basic medieval fantasy, but all this things takes a background to the court intrigues, fighting and distrust between the heirs to the crown.
Le deuxième volume de la série des Princes d'Ambre. J'en garde un bon souvenir, mais bizarrement pas suffisamment pour avoir réellement envie de le relire après plusieurs années.
I read this way back in the 1970s. Still a good read these many years later.
Fantastic classic sequel to Nine Princes in Amber.
I thought I had read this before, but clearly I hadn't.
Generally involves Corwin preparing to attack his brother Eric and discovering that his curse of Amber has had huge unintended consequences.
