Synopsis

In the climactic fifth installment of Roger Zelazny's original Amber saga, Corwin's epic quest culminates in a confrontation that will determine the fate of existence itself. With the identity of the mysterious 'hell-witch' revealed and the true nature of King Oberon's disappearance brought to light, Corwin must navigate the treacherous Courts of Chaos. He races against time to prevent the collapse of the universal Pattern, the very foundation of reality, which is under assault from the forces of entropy and uncreation. As old alliances shatter and new, unexpected ones form, Corwin must harness his unique heritage and the power of the Pattern to make an impossible choice that will decide whether Amber and its myriad shadow worlds endure or are swallowed by eternal void. This volume offers a profound exploration of destiny, free will, and the cosmic struggle between order and chaos.
