Sign of the Unicorn

Sign of the Unicorn is the third book in Roger Zelazny’s incomparable Chronicles of Amber series.



Amber experiences a brief respite from black road invaders, only to have the murder of Cain disrupt their sense of security. Framed for the crime, Corwin suspects a link to his brother Brand's mysterious disappearance. Rallying the family together, Corwin endeavors to harness their combined powers in pursuit of Brand, but internal betrayal and suspicion threaten to fracture Amber once more. As ruler of Amber, Corwin must grapple with the weight of leadership while facing the ominous specter of sibling treachery, and so embarks on a quest for guidance in a land of visions, where a sinister prediction foretells his impending doom.
