Creatures of Light and Darkness by Roger Zelazny
2.0
Okay....
Liked: a handful of lines, use of mixed formats, Vramin, the prologue
Disliked: Really, we're in the far future with the Egyptian pantheon and a human society that has transcended death and we're still saying things like "I shall not lose to a woman"? Also, weird inconsistent use of "thou" form
Really big shrug: Aside from names and in some cases appearances, the entire Egyptian pantheon bit is fragmented and feels like a cheap way to raise the stakes of the conflict, and also it just kinda sucks
