No current Talk conversations about this book. paperback This is an eclectic collection of SciFi, Fantasy, and other speculative tales, all written by one author, Roger Zelazny. Zelazny seemed to delight in twisting the plot of his strange narratives, usually with guffaw-inspiring results, at least for me. While not all the stories in this collection are vintage Zelazny, enough qualify, and make the read highly worthwhile. If you've never tried exploring his strange worlds, this book might be a good introduction to the Zelazny talent, a writer who is greatly appreciated, and missed, by many of us. Zelazny's short fiction is almost always jewel like, and the stories in Unicorn Variations aren't any different. Zelazny's humor permeates several of these stories, and even those that seem hokey (hunting rouge automobiles) ultimately work. While he's best known for his Amber series, Zelanzy's short works of fiction frankly outshine most of his novel-length work. no reviews | add a review
