I collected the original Amber series, book by book as they came out - and I thoroughly enjoyed them all. The concept of an effectively infinite series of worlds, accessible by walking through them to get to - seriously weird and wonderful locales, like Amber itself, or the Courts of Chaos in the other direction. And THE most wonderful dysfunctional family, where disagreements can last for millenia - and often become very violent indeed.
One problem with those books, however, was that they WERE TOO DAMN SHORT! This collection fixes that - and should let Zelazny's magic be more easily experienced by a new generation. I'm certainly going to read them again.
