*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE!! *** Has something happened to Zelazney? It seems as though it's been an awfully long time since he's published a new novel. He hasn't retired or anything like that, has he? On a similar note, how many of you remember a novel called "The Witches of Karres"? The ending of the book seemed to set the stage for a sequel, but one has never appeared. It's author, (whose name I've forgotten) hasn't been publishing any other stuff, either. Maybe someday we'll bet the sequel. -- Jeff Sonntag ihnp4!mhuxt!js2j "Step right up, get your free TANSTAAFL!"

[] Witches of Karres author (Schmitz) never wrote that longed-for sequel. He's now dead, I believe. sob. -- "It's the thought, if any, that counts." Dick Grantges hound!rfg

James Schmitz wrote "The Withes of Karres", along with some stuff about a girl named Telzey Amberly (Is this name close?) that David Palmer's new book "Emergence" reminded me of. I vaguely remember hearing that he is dead. Rich

[How many other people will post a similar article?] The author of \The Witches of Karres/ is/was James Schmitz. I have seen (in a B. Dalton's) a number (4? 5?) of books by him about a "psychic Galactic agent" or some such, though I haven't read any of them. Don't know anything about a sequel to \Karres/.

From: "Stephen R. Balzac" <LS.SRB%MIT-EECS@MIT-MC.ARPA> Zelazny is supposedly writting some more Amber books (3 I think). Witches of Karres was written, I believe, by Schmidt.
