My Review of The Guns of Avalon

The Guns of Avalon by Roger Zelazny

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This is book 2 in the Amber series, and we continue with the story of Corwin. He goes to the Shadow world of Avalon to obtain a particular product that will help him assault Eric in Amber, but he keeps running into sinister black forces that he himself has unleashed by his curse in Book 1. But when he gets to Avalon he discovers his brother Benedict is there, and that could mean trouble since Benedict won’t support Corwin’s plans. This leaves open the question of how far he will go to stop Corwin. Then Corwin meets Benedict’s granddaughter, and that adds more complications. The book ends on a cliff-hanger that may leave you cursing the author, but it is clear that this meant to be a series that won’t have any stand-alone novels and will only be complete when you have read all of it. Fortunately each of the novels is a fairly quick read, around 5 hours for me, at least so far.
