I found joy left the room when I opened Verne.....but thanks for the kind words of solace, but look who you pulled! The first Sci Fi book I ever read was A stranger in a strange land. I loved book. I still love that book. I would have even been content with Herbert - the father, not the son.
The Amber series was fun to read, but it wasn't Zelazny's best work... Go for his short stories.
I recommend the collections Last Defender of Camelot, Unicorn Variations, and Four for Tomorrow. Better check the used book stores, though, because I think they are out of print.

I think your very much like Verne, a joy to read and getting the reader to look forward to what you have to say next

Stranger was a great book; I try to read it once a year.
Ever read Zelazny?
I tested as Philip Jose Farmer; never heard of him...
Michael, never heard of farmer either. Zelazny - the prince of chaos. Yep, read him too.

The novel Lord of Light was very good, too.
