[edit] Blurb
Wow, this reads like a book-blurb instead of like an encyclopedia to me. Of course, I've not checked out a lot of the other book entries. But phrases like: excellent fantasy, never really slows down, reads like greased lightning, I envy the folks that can read this for the first time., (a 'mold breaker' in the fantasy genre. well, maybe not this last phrase), read like commercial copy instead of more non-biased writing on a topic.

- Yep, it went against Wikipedia's policy of neutral point of view. I removed the offending bits, but keep in mind that you can fix it yourself. --Mrwojo 18:15, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)
[edit] shadow shifting
I don't have time to make any changes myself now, and I would prefer to do them after I read the Amber series again, but I'd like to say that I think more should be written about the book besides a plot summary and character descriptions. there should be more focus on some of the particularly interesting aspects of the book, such as the process of shadow shifting that is described in the book, or the fact that Zelazny, in making this book, has basically created a model of the entire universe (you'd know what I mean if you've read the book). I know that I want details of these things to be added because they are interesting, but these aspects of the book could still be described in detail, which wouldn't necessarily go against wikipedia policy. Also, more could also be added about the reactions that readers of the book had, criticism, etc. Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (talk) 07:21, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
