Roger Zelazny's Visual Guide to Castle Amber

Let Flora, Princess of Amber, show you through one of SFs most extraordinary fantasy realms. This abundantly illustrated volume offers fascinating views of Castle Amber in all its magnificence, set like a jewel in the side of the mountain called Kolvir. Stroll around the Castle's pentagonal perimeter, and through the Royal Family's private gardens and parks. Enter the Main Hall with its many large, colorful tapestries . . . visit the enormous Kitchen and well-stocked Armory. Detailed floor plans take you room by room - from the Throne Room to the Treasury, from the Dungeons to the Dining Halls, from the Library and laboratory to private apartments and secret chambers. And all the while, you'll absorb a wealth of never-before-revealed information, as Flora shares her own ideas and opinions about her home and her relatives. You'll learn about Amber's culture and myths - the Courts of Chaos - the pattern and the Logrus. You'll meet the Royal Family, as well as their most significant allies and foes. And you'll discover the secret of the Greater Trumps - What they are, how they work and, for the first time, exactly what they look like. It's all here and more!
