The Guns of Avalon

The second book of Amber is almost as good as the first. It has a little more exposition than I like, but overall, it delivered. The writing is still tight, even during the exposition, and the imagination going into this universe is still impressive. Corwin, the protagonist, is still believable as an average person despite being immortal, with relatable emotions and reactions. He acquires a sidekick in this book and we meet a few more brothers. The sisters don't make a reappearance, but there are a few more women introduced. I'm really enjoying the series so far and am glad I'm giving it a go.
