When Susi cut through the old orchard, shady and secret and out-of-the-way, she was alone. Then, on a fine, warm, sunny day during the last week of school she met Herman, a lonesome pterodactyl sunning himself on a rock. So began an extraordinary summer of friendship, adventure, discovery and magic. "Drink in the night," he said. "Breathe deeply. Look at the world all laid out before you, sparkling through the dark. It is your world, warm-blooded Susi, not mine." Take flight with Susi and Herman for an adventure never to be forgotten, one that will leave you filled with joy and touched with sadness. Illustrated with 6 full page color illustrations as well as a full color wrap-around cover by Vaughn Bode.

Roger Zelazny
Amerikansk forfatter som levede fra 1937 til 1995. Han begyndte at skrive SF og fantasy I 1962. Nogle af de historier han skrev I sin karrieres tidlige år blev trykt under psudonymet Harrison Denmark, et navn vi alle kan godkende. Zelazny vandt mange priser for sine historier, men hans mest kendte verden er stadig "Amber" bøgerne, som startede med "Nine Princes in Amber" fra 1970. Det blev oprindeligt til fem bøger I serien, men efter nogle års pause skrev han endnu en serie på fem. Alle ti bøger er nu blevet samlet I "The Great Book of Amber." Romanen "Lord of Light" er en anden af Zelazny's mest roste bøger.
