Synopsis
In the nationally bestselling Roger Zelaznys The Dawn of Amber, John Gregory Betancourt began the epic exploration into how the world of Amber and all of its shadow worlds came into existence. The young warrior named Oberon, who is destined to found a dynasty and rule over Amber, was rescued from attacking hell creatures by his father, Dworkin, and introduced to his brothers and sisters -- and his heritage as a Prince of the Courts of Chaos. But the shadow world called Juniper, the home of Dworkin and his kin, came under deadly attack by unknown and overwhelming forces. After sending the rest of the family to distant shadow worlds for their own safety, Dworkin and Oberon, and Oberons half-brother Aber, travelled to the centre of the known universe and the lair of their enemies, the Courts of Chaos, to put an end to the undeclared blood feud. In To Rule in Amber, the story picks up when Oberon takes on the reins of leadership, and he carves an empire from the new universe created by his father. Enemies new and old lie in wait, and creating a kingdom for himself and his heirs requires delicate political manoeuvring, a will of iron, and the might of a born warrior. Power-mad siblings, a madman for a father, assassins, and the King of Chaos are just the beginning of his troubles. Oberon must learn to master them all, if he is To Rule in Amber. The more Oberon tries to do to clear the family name, the worse the situation becomes, until the mysteriously missing Dworkin Trumps into the scene and snatches him away. Dworkin has no intention of trying to clear his name right now, especially since he is a traitor, having stolen the magical object known as the Jewel of Judgement. This he needs to create a new, equally powerful universe from which to oppose the Courts of Chaos, the universe that will be known as Amber... a universe built from magic, will power, and royal blood., In this volume, a new universe, with its infinite shadow reflections, is brought into being by Dworkin via the Pattern he has created with his own blood. But his creation has caused a great upheaval in the faraway Courts of Chaos. While Oberon uses Trumps to bring over family members to the relative safety of his new world, Dworkin--who has become unhinged from the extraordinary strains of creating the universe--mysteriously disappears. Assassins, shapeshifters, Pattern ghosts and double-crosses work against both Uthor and the house of Dworkin. Oberon must use all of his skills and new-found power to control the course of events, win the day, and stake his claim as the first king of Amber. "Betancourt creates a thrill-a-minute series..." --Library Journal "John Gregory Betancourt's The Dawn of Amber is cause to celebrate. He is the ideal choice to assume Roger Zelazny's mantle, and The Dawn of Amber is the perfect introduction to a new series of Amber books that glow equally with the magic of Roger Zelazny's creation and John Betancourt's own burgeoning talent." --Richard A. Lupoff "John Betancourt channels Zelazny? However he got it, he has the gift, and now there is a new Amber trilogy that will delight a legion of fans eager to learn how Amber came to be." --Tom Easton, Book Reviewer for ANALOG Magazine "The spirit of Zelazny lives on in Betancourt's prequel. Roger Zelazny's works in the years he wrote the first Amber books were perhaps the best in SF and Fantasy of the 20th century. If you've read the Amber books, this book is a must. If you haven't, this book is the best place to start." --David Bischoff, author of Aliens vs. Predator
