Description: First edition, first printing, signed by the author on the title page. The first book in the Chronicles of Amber series is scarce in part because the publishers accidentally pulped much of the print run when they went to destroy remaindered copies of Zelazny's previous book, Creatures of Light and Darkness. Nine Princes and Amber was the source material for the popular video game of the same name and had a "profound effect" (Hartwell, p. 17) on the development of Dungeons & Dragons. Currey, p. 571. David G. Hartwell, "On Roger Zelazny", The Collected Stories of Roger Zelazny, Vol. 3, 2009. Octavo. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in silver. With dust jacket. Spine ends bumped, slight silverfishing to edges, wear to corners of front board, offsetting to front free endpaper; lightly toned jacket with slight loss at foot of spine panel, a few nicks to head of spine and corners, rear panel faintly marked, unclipped: a very good copy in like jacket.
