A review by neglet
The Courts of Chaos by Roger Zelazny

Re-reading an old favorite for the first time in a decade... And it hasn’t aged well for me. This conclusion doesn’t have a whole lot of plot—just more hell rides (which I end up skimming at this point, the novelty is gone) and a couple of big battles. Corwin seems to have learned some lessons, but I don’t feel like he’s really changed or grown. Aside from now he doesn’t want the throne—not an earth-shaking emotional insight.

I love this world and the basic plot concept, but on a re-read it falls short for me, especially when it comes to character development.
