Feelin' like Sisyphus.
Also, to elaborate, I am alternating upvotes on Leiber and Zelazny. To explain-
I had three foundational fantasy authors.
1. Leiber - we had a bunch of his old paperbacks for some reason in our house growing up, and I started reading him in grade school. I will always love Lankhmar. He kicked off my love of S&S, and I sought out all of his books over the years. I have run multiple campaigns in Nehwon.
2. Zelazny - I have stolen so many ideas from him over the years for campaigns. Amber? Lord of Light? This Immortal? Creatures of Light and Darkness? The Mask of Loki? THE MASK OF LOWKEY?
3. Stephen R. Donaldson - The Land (Covenant) might be one of the best series ... just a little hard to recommend given the subject matter, and, especially, how the first book starts out - which was controversial at the time, and hasn't aged well at all. He's not on the list, though.
Anyway, yeah, Zelazny is awesome.
