Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In a world half of light, half of darkness, where science and magic strive for dominance, there dwells a magical being who is friendly with neither side. Jack, of the realm of shadows, is a thief who is unjustly punished. So he embarks on a vendetta. He wanders through strange realms, encountering witches, vampires, and, finally, his worst enemy: the Lord of Bats. He consults his friend Morningstar, a great dark angel. He is pursued by a monstrous creature called the Borshin. But to reveal any more would be to spoil some of the mindboggling surprises Jack of Shadows has in store.

In Shadowjack he creates another memorable hero, a worthy brother to Corwin of Amber and Sam of Lord of Light, and the world he inhabits is one of Roger's most exotic and colorful landscapes. A must read for all fans of the master." -George R.R. Martin"One of the most satisfying reads in all Zelazny's work." -SFXJack of Shadows receives a full recommendation as a must read for any science fiction or fantasy fan, especially those who like to imagine what lies just beyond our reality. -NerdophilesThe story is fast-paced and compelling at every turn, proof that good science fiction-despite the technological advances of intervening years-is timeless. -Foreword ReviewsA captivating, quick-read that fans of Zelazny will devour and that high fantasy readers will appreciate. -Geeks of DoomAbout the AuthorRoger Zelazny (1937-1995) is best known as the author of the critically acclaimed Chronicles of Amber series, Lord of Light, and A Night in the Lonesome October; he won the Nebula award three times and the Hugo award six.

All rights reserved.Jack of ShadowsBy Roger Zelazny Chicago Review Press IncorporatedCopyright 1971 Roger ZelaznyAll rights reserved.ISBN: 978-1-61373-524-4CHAPTER 1It happened when Jack whose name is spoken in shadow went to Igls, in the Twilight Lands, to visit the Hellgames. It was there that he was observed while considering the situation of the Hellflame.The Hellflame was a slim urn of silvery fires, gracefully wrought and containing a fist-sized ruby at the uppermost tips of its blazing fingers. These held it in an unbreakable grip, and the gemstone glimmered coolly despite them.Now, the Hellflame was on display for all to regard, but the fact that Jack was seen looking at it was cause for much consternation. Newly arrived in Igls, he was first noticed while passing amid lanterns, in line with the other onlookers, who were moving through the open-sided display pavilion. He was recognized by Smage and Quazer, who had left their places of power to come to compete for the trophy. They immediately moved to report him to the Games Master.Smage shifted his weight from foot to foot and tugged at his mustache until the tears rose in his squarish eyes and he began to blink. He stared up at his giant companion Quazer - hair, eyes, flesh all of a uniform gray - rather than regard the colorful bulk of Benoni, the Games Master, whose will was law in this place."What do you two want?" he inquired.Smage continued to stare and blink until Quazer finally spoke in his flutelike fashion."We have information for you," he said."I hear you. Tell it," replied Benoni."We have recognized one whose presence here should be cause for some concern.""Who?"&quo. N� de r�f. du vendeur BKZN9781613735244
