		He discovers that he is Corwin, Prince of Amber, and claimant to the vacant throne.
		This quest consumes the first five books of the "Complete Chronicles of Amber," and a rousing tale it is. Corwin has supernatural powers, but he is not the cardboard, two dimensional hero so often encountered in "Sword and Sorcery" fiction.
		Zelazny's use of first-person narrative in the beginning of the series helps the reader discover the intricacies of Amber along with the main character, something that is rarely done well, and definately not as well as Zelazny does here.

		In line with previous Amber books, it ends in a total cliffhanger that I'd have hated, were I not already an Amber fan.
