Wild Cards I — 4/5 ⭐️
A wild, weird, and addictive start to a universe I somehow missed until now. Outstanding worldbuilding and a killer lineup of writers.

I knew about the character from Role Aids Wizards and finally read the book. Jack of Shadows: Rediscovered Classics, Book 23 #RogerZelazny amzn.to/4q66A7n #affiliatelink
A short novel, just a little over 200 pages. Fun stuff with a mix of magic and tech.

Nov 2 prompt: Previously
I really enjoyed this #scifi by #RogerZelazny in 2024:
I have many favorite bits, and lines, and scenes, in A Night...
"I felt a strong desire to howl at the moon. It was such a howlable moon. But I restrained myself."

8. Lord of Light by #RogerZelazny. The opening lines: "His followers called him Mahasamatman and said he was a god. He preferred to drop the Maha- and the -atman, however, and called himself Sam." A very Zelazny trick that only he could pull off--bringing sacred cows (and gods) to the level of man.
Thanks to everyone who did whatever was in their means to establish that when we say #NoKings, we mean #NoKings!
However, night has fallen and it's time for another chapter of "A Night In The Lonesome October" by the legendary #RogerZelazny

Digital drawing of two men - a larger red head on the left (Luke) looking at the shorter slimmer dark haired man on the right (Merlin). They both have cigarettes. Merlin is lighting his cigarette off Luke’s cigarette.
Digital drawing of a woman leaning forward pointing to something.
Digital drawing of a woman seen from the back. Her hair is in an updo and she’s holding a small hand mirror.
An extremely crude comic about Dara and Merlin (mother and son). Dara is depicted in a chaos-y form with horns and multiple eyes. Panel one: Dara rolls her eyes and says “ugh, you are just like your dad.” Merlin looks confused. Panel two: Merlin looks thoughtful and sad and thinks to himself “she must mean my physical appearance- that I constantly remind her of the man she once loved!” Panel three: Dara looks dubiously at Merlin as he continues thinking “the forbidden but politically advantageous love between a denizen of chaos and a Prince of amber!” Panel four: Dara gazes at Merlin as he stares into the distance. She thinks “an absolute dipshit.”
Some more in-process drawings of Luke and Merlin, Flora, Flora, and a comic about Dara & Merlin. #TheChroniclesOfAmber #RogerZelazny

If someone were to adapt a proper version of Roger Zelazny’s “Damnation Alley” you could do a hell of a lot worse than casting Jason Momoa as Tanner. #damnationalley #rogerzelazny #jasonmomoa

Day 215: #Io,L’Immortale (in English #ThisImmortal) by #RogerZelazny
In the #future, #Earth has been ravaged by nuclear wars and just 4 million people remain. In this scenario #ConnorNomikos, the apparently immortal #narrator, has to protect a tourist from #Vega.
sea smells, sea birds, seawrack, sands—alternately cool, warm, moist and dry—a taste of brine and the presence of the rocking, slopping bluegraygreen spit-flecked waters, has the effect of rinsing the emotions, bathing the outlook, bleaching the conscience
