Isle of the Dead

Front Cover

As with his classic Lord of Light, Roger Zelazny's new book explores the consequences of a human becoming a god. Francis Sandow, known as Shimbo of Darktree, God of Thunder, to the Pei'ans, doesn't quite believe his personality really has merged with the ancient consciousness of the god.
