A review by trilbynorton
Creatures of Light and Darkness by Roger Zelazny

adventurous medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

A great example of the importance of prose. Creatures of Light and Darkness is essentially pulp space opera, with superpowered beings zipping about space and fighting each other. But Zelazny's prose is mysterious and evocative, turning lurid science fiction into enigmatic mythology.
