ROADMARKS

Orbit paperback, 1981. Cover painting by Tim White.

"Somewhere in New York State is a road, which few know how to find, which goes not to any particular destination but backwards and forwards in time. The traveller on the road can turn off to all times and places, even alternate histories which never happened. 

Red Dorakeen has been travelling the Road as far back as he or anyone can remember. A long time ago he walked it as an old man - now, much younger, he is driving his old Dodge pick-up truck, running guns to the Greeks fighting Persian invaders at ancient Marathon. 

But someone has put out a contract on Red. His hidden enemy has searched the past and future for a band of assassins to pursue Red wherever the Road may take him."

FOUR FOR TOMORROW

Ace paperback, 1967. Cover by Jack Gaughan.

"One of the outstanding science fiction writers of the decade. A Roger Zelazny story can be counted on for a unique blend of hard scientific extrapolation and rich poetic vision - for fast-paced action and singing imagery." 

-Fantasy & Science Fiction

"One of the most solid talents to show up in the field in years." 

-Galaxy Science Fiction

"An explosion of style and personality unique in sf. Zelazny is a law unto himself, driving over and through the conventional forms of fiction, writing freely and vitally from himself. He is writing for his own sake of his own visions and allowing the rest of us to look over his shoulder. It's a rare privilege." 

-Speculative Bulletin

Contains four stories; The Furies, The Graveyard Heart, The Doors Of His Face, The Lamps Of His Mouth and A Rose For Ecclesiastes

THE LAST DEFENDER OF CAMELOT

Sphere SF paperback. Cover illustration by Peter Goodfellow.

'I envy anyone who has not read them and is about to!' 

-Theodore Sturgeon 

"There are fifteen strange and beautiful stories in this collection, spanning the full spectrum of Zelazny's remarkable career. Zelazny is one of the most acclaimed and honoured writers in the science fiction field and these dazzling and memorable stories explain why."

'Zelazny, telling of gods and wizards, uses magical words as if he were himself a wizard' 

-Philip José Farmer

DOORWAYS IN THE SAND

Star Books paperback, 1978. Cover painting by Bob Haberfield.

"Man is no longer alone in the cosmos...The aliens have given a precious relic to the people of earth, the star-stone, but when it vanishes the harmony of the galaxy is threatened. 

Fred Cassidy is a perpetual student cruising his way smoothly through life and human knowledge. All he knows about the star-stone is that it came to earth in an interplanetary cultural exchange for the Mona Lisa and the Crown Jewels. But other sentient beings seem to think otherwise... 

Accused of stealing the stone, he is pursued by telepathic psychologists, extraterrestrial hoodlums, and galactic police in bizarre disguise. He flees into multiple realities, flipping in and out of alien perspectives, through doorways in the sand..."

LORD OF LIGHT

Panther SF paperback, 1977. Cover illustration by Peter Goodfellow.

"SAM NEVER CLAIMED TO BE A GOD. BUT THEN, HE NEVER CLAIMED NOT TO BE... 

The time: long after the death of earth. A band of men on a colony planet have gained control of technology. With it, they have given themselves immortality and godlike powers. And they rule their world as the gods of the Hindu pantheon. Kali, goddess of destruction; Yama, lord of death; Krishna, god of lust - all are opposed by he who was Siddartha, and is now Mahasamatman, Binder of Demons, Lord of Light..."

TODAY WE CHOOSE FACES

Orbit paperback, 1976. Cover painting by Peter Jones.

"A pioneer in the new wave, winner of both Hugo and Nebula awards and an author with a tremendous cult following, Roger Zelazny's novels provide a fascinating blend of fantasy, mythology, excitement and adventure. 

In Today We Choose Faces Zelazny has broken new mental and spacial barriers and produced a terrifyingly remote yet immensely impressive vision of the future."
