Jon Betancourt must die!
Sep. 10th, 2002 06:32 pmSo, I'm tracking down some info on Zelazny, and I found the following link:

For the record, Zelazny had stated numerous times that he'd never want anyone else writing the Amber universe. But according to Neil Gaiman's weblog, Zelazny's estate is administered by someone who apparently doesn't care a whit about his wishes (and no, I don't think it's Jane Lindskold -- I get the impression it's a blood relative).
This is wrong. On so many damned levels. Betancourt isn't capable of writing these characters. Few writers are. And the ones who are wouldn't stoop that low.
