Happy Birthday!

.... According to the SciFi channel... (wonder whatever happened to the
Amber mini-series they were planning).

Roger Zelazny is born (1937)

Science-fiction author Roger was one of the leading and representative
figures in the SF literary movement known as New Wave. The New Wave
movement shifted the creative focus from the external realms of hard
science to internal ones, such as psychology, sociology and
linguistics. His fellow New Wave alumni include Samuel R. Delany,
Thomas M. Disch, Ursula K. Le Guin and Harlan Ellison. Major works by
Roger include his memorable Amber series; This Immortal (which won the
1965 Hugo for Best Novel); The Dream Master (which won the 1966 Nebula
for Best Novella); and The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth
(which won a Nebula for Best Novelette). Roger, who died on June 14,
1995, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA, of kidney failure and other
complications caused by cancer, was born in Euclid, Ohio, USA.

...and no mention of Lord Of Light, possibly his greatest masterpiece. Ah
well...
