While Zelazny is often left out of sci fi considerations, he has a lot in common with the other writers we've spoken about. He also deals with a topic that we see come up again and again in sci fi: What is the real? Even though The Chronicles of Amber are difficult to categorize, they still stand out, especially as our real & virtual lives continue to mix and mingle.
