Knight of Shadows took me way too long to read; I've just been busy lately. But it's done now.

Unfortunately, breaking the book up so much and reading in such small amounts may have negatively affected my enjoyment of it. D'oh.

Finished with Sign of Chaos. Not sure if it was better or worse than Blood of Amber, but it certainly beats Trumps of Doom. I REALLY liked the final third or so, and am very excited to continue on to Knight of Shadows!

Blood of Amber: done! What a huge jump in quality from the last book; Trumps appears to be some sort of Amber anomaly.

Trumps of Doom is done. Overall, I wasn't terribly entertained with it; sad.

Just finished The Courts of Chaos. While it remains my least favorite of the Corwin series, I have to admit, that final battle is *epic.*

Finished The Hand of Oberon last night. Definitely an exciting book (especially in the latter half), but I still think I prefer Sign of the Unicorn and Nine Princes in Amber. (But if you were to ask me which of those two is my favorite, I wouldn't be able to answer.)

Also of note: I enjoyed the hellride in this book much more than the one in The Guns of Avalon.

Just finished Sign of the Unicorn: the book of intrigue and increasing mystery. This one may still be my favorite in the series, but we'll soon see what kind of competition the Hand of Oberon can provide.

Finished Nine Princes today. God, that book is exciting.
