Frost and Fire

Rating:
Summary: Excellent collection
Review: Roger Zelazny is one of a few great prose stylists of the Fantasy and Science Fiction genere, along with Ray Bradbury and Jack Vance. His style is fierce and lyrical. This evident in all his stories, but especially in the two Hugo winners collected here "Permafrost" and "24 Veiws of Mt. Fuji, by Hokusia". The former is the story that convice me that Zelazny is great writer, giving us a tale of Love and Hatred, Revenge and Betrayel of cosmic proportions. The latter mixes philisophical musings, martial arts, Japanese methology, and cyberpunk speculations. Also there are two essays on science fiction and fantasy along with ten other treats.
