My first Zelazny foray and I had a hard time really getting dug in but once I did, I realized I'm going to have to read it again sometime. Complex characters, complex imagery, complex plot and complex themes makes this a tough book to digest, in my opinion. This is probably why the friend who recommended it has re-read it so often that she's had to buy a second (or third?) copy. It won the Hugo Award, so there is that recommendation as well, not to mention the notoriety of the author.
