- Source: Roger Zelazny bibliography
This is a partial bibliography of American science fiction and fantasy author Roger Zelazny (missing several individual short stories published in collections).
Bibliography
= Amber
=The Chronicles of Amber comprise two distinct series of five novels and several short stories.
The first five books describe the adventures of Prince Corwin of Amber:
1970 Nine Princes in Amber
1972 The Guns of Avalon
1975 Sign of the Unicorn
1976 The Hand of Oberon
1978 The Courts of Chaos
The second series tells the story of Corwin's son Merlin (Merle), a wizard and computer expert. These volumes are:
1985 Trumps of Doom – Locus Fantasy Award winner, 1986
1986 Blood of Amber – Locus Fantasy Award nominee, 1987
1987 Sign of Chaos – Locus Fantasy Award nominee, 1988
1989 Knight of Shadows
1991 Prince of Chaos
Zelazny also wrote seven short stories set in the Amber multiverse. Here they are listed in Zelazny's intended order, with first publication dates.
2005 "A Secret of Amber" [story fragment co-written with Ed Greenwood between 1977 and 1992, published in Amberzine #12–15]
1985 "Prolog to Trumps of Doom"
1994 "The Salesman's Tale"
1995 "Blue Horse, Dancing Mountains"
1994 "The Shroudling and The Guisel"
1995 "Coming to a Cord"
1996 "Hall of Mirrors"
In 2020 Amber Limited released the short stories as a collection titled Seven Tales in Amber with an introduction by Warren Lapine.
The latter five of these stories form one tale set after Prince of Chaos, so they are latest in Amber history.
All 10 novels have been published in a single omnibus form as The Great Book of Amber and six of the seven short stories were collected in Manna from Heaven. A sex scene deleted from The Guns of Avalon has been published in Collected Stories, volume 3, while the seven Amber short tales appear in volume 6.
Zelazny collaborated on a companion book, The Visual Guide to Castle Amber (1988), by Zelazny and Neil Randall, illustrated by Todd Cameron Hamilton and James Clouse. The Guide is a reference work providing biographical detail on the Amber characters and a walk-through guide to Castle Amber itself.
John Betancourt has written a series of novels set in the Amber multiverse set several centuries before Nine Princes in Amber. Betancourt's series tells the story of Corwin's father Oberon, a wizard and shapeshifter. That the Zelazny estate authorized the series has caused some controversy; see "The Chronicles of Amber" for more details.
An interactive fiction computer game based on Nine Princes in Amber was released by Telarium in 1987. The Amber novels also inspired a unique role-playing game, lacking any random element: Amber Diceless Roleplaying, published by Phage Press.

Zelazny was also a contributor to the Wild Cards shared world anthology series (edited by George R. R. Martin), following the exploits of his character Croyd Crenson, the Sleeper.
Zelazny created the Alien Speedway series of novels (Clypsis by Jeffrey Carver, Pitfall and The Web by Thomas Wylde) which appeared between 1986–87. His own story "Deadboy Donner and the Filstone Cup" appears to have been inspired by the outline that he wrote for Alien Speedway.
Zelazny created and edited a shared world anthology called Forever After. The frame story uses preludes, written by Roger, to connect the stories. This shared world involved stories by Robert Asprin, David Drake, Jane Lindskold, and Michael A. Stackpole. Forever After was published posthumously by Baen Books.
Following Zelazny's death, a tribute anthology entitled Lord of the Fantastic was released in 1998. This featured stories inspired by Zelazny, and personal recollections by contributors such as Robert Silverberg, Fred Saberhagen, Jennifer Roberson, Walter Jon Williams, Gregory Benford and many others.
In 2017, another tribute anthology entitled Shadows & Reflections: A Roger Zelazny Tribute Anthology was published. This was co-edited by Zelazny's son Trent Zelazny, included an afterword by his daughter Shannon Zelazny and a story by his partner and sometime coauthor Jane Lindskold, and featured a rarely seen story by Zelazny himself, as well as short stories by Steven Brust, Warren Lapine, Kelly McCullough, Mark Rich, Gio Clairval, Edward J. McFadden, Steve Perry, Gerald Hausman, Theodore Krulik, Lawrence Watt-Evans, Michael H. Hanson, and Shariann Lewitt.
