the Chronicles of Amber
    #23411694 - 07/04/16 07:54 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

so this is something i've been very much thinking about posting for a while now... why haven't?  I dunno, simply,.. sometimes like, non-action can become kind of a habit,.. as in, each moment try to reach that state of peace -- and how is that reached?  non-action is the means and the aim.  it is interesting -- and, i cannot say it is any way for others, or even that it is for myself, but simply - . . .and, fortunately, or luckily, the easy way of explaining it is accurate and useful - look at every other animal or creature... most everyone of them have mastered this skill in some way or other, and is essential to their life and survival;

spiders, well of course,  snakes,  cats,  all animals really, in some way or other... and some more than others.

frogs definitely. . . alligators -- and also i notice from this simple list -- how, the simple skill of waiting,. . .

in all these animals - are if not at the top of their food chain, at least close.  does this word, this skill also denote -- predator?  other animals have it too, but out of necessity?


okay -- rambling unrelated intro done  (plz forgive rambling unrelated intro!). . .


so - wanted to share this for awhile, about 6 months..  i read it most of the way through as a kid. . .a mentor and friend, one of the smartest people i ever knew, recommended the series to me, and so it was always partly memorable to me as i related it to my friend...  but, it wasn't until going through it the second time that i understood how great it was --

as,. . i had both read savitri, sonnets to orpheus (tr. c.f. mcyntire), what to speak of --







anyway.  this series is incredible - very many times throughout reading it (this was while camping, in the pristine of nature. . . )

in fact quite cool, cold - beautiful, by the lake, with a little cat who is coming closer to adult but still a kitten. ..


anyway -- so those many times felt this -- so, why?  the beauty-- the magic -- the imagery - characters, plot, story --

all are truly - the very best... and i've read a lot of.. that kind, ---


anyway -- on topics of magic and stuff it's really beautiful...  Doesn't address spirituality specifically very much,  sometimes, a little more, this or that -- quite a few lovely references...


for sure --

anyway.


Chronicles of Amber.. great story and also inspired a ton of art, and what not - the 'initiating' cheat code in Warcraft 1 was 'Corwin of Amber'

a little nod to the great author and world -


in terms of text - the story is not that long. . . ten books of around 150 pages or so; set in 2 groups of 5...


telling two different but continuing story arcs - the story of Corwin, then of his son.



at present, there are a couple of different places it's available online, all free --


one place -- this place,

was really nice for reading on a phone, for example, although there was no way to skip to an exact spot, so i had to save each page when i was done reading..

this one has the story in full -- was really nice for me, (after having read it quite a bit on the other)


and was easier in the sense, that one could effortlessly skim through all of it.... etc.

that was here
http://amberlit.narod.ru/lib/amber1e.html


and then also -- this i discovered recently -- and was blown away very much!  Roger -- the author --

He has read them all, and they are online..!!  and - he really does an extraordinary job.. 

they uploaded in like February,


anyway all the best-- hope you enjoy or not -- hope you enjoy either way. :smile:


Sign of the Unicorn  3rd book




What's going on?, I asked the caterpiller

You're looped in Luke's loop, it replied.

Come again?, I said.

It blew a blue smoke ring, sighed softly, and said,

'Luke's lost in a loop,
and you're lost in the lyrics,
that's all.

How'd it happen?, I asked.

I have no idea, it replied.

How does one get unlooped?

Couldn't tell you that, either.
