Roger Zelazny: A Primary and Secondary Bibliography

I have no further information on this bibliography at this time, but it has been reviewed by Roger C. Schlobin.

Amber Dreams: A Roger Zelazny Bibliography
Compiled by Daniel J H Levack
Published by Underwood-Miller, April 1983
$8.95
151 pages
detailed edition information
I've found this (aside from the datedness) to be the most useful reference as I've attempted to compile bibliographic information of my own.
  • The 50 page "Books" section alphabetically lists novels, short story collections, and standalone publications such as chapbooks. For each book, a chronological listing is given of each unique edition, whether hardcover, softcover, English or a foreign translation. Information such as publication date, price, cover artist, book format, and book number are given. Images of many book covers are also included. The format of my own individual book bibliographies is loosely based on Levack's.
  • The "Edited Books" section includes information on Nebula Award Stories Three.
  • The 55 page "Stories" section alphabetically lists all short stories, poems, nonfiction, and novels printed as magazine serials or in omnibus volumes. (Such as the Amber series, collected in the SFBC edition.) Chronological listings of various publications are included, along with more images of magazines whose covers featured tie-in artwork.
  • The 6 page "Magazine Checklist" alphabetically lists all magazines or other similar publications which included Zelazny works, listing the relevant issue(s) with a cross-reference to the included work's number as given in the "Stories" section.
  • Also included are "Works About Roger Zelazny", "Miscellaneous", "Connected Stories and Continuing Characters", "Pseudonyms", "Collaborations", "Verse Index", "Non-Fiction Index", and "Chronological Order of Publication of Roger Zelazny's Works".

A Checklist of Roger Zelazny
Compiled by Christopher P. Stephens
Published by Ultramarine, 1989-?
Most recent printing $7.95
47 pages
Stapled pamphlet, ISBN 0893662208. The copyright page lists copyrights for 1989, 1990, and 1991, which might suggest that revisions were entered in 1990 and 1991. The front title page shows "1993", possibly indicating another printing in that year. The front and back inner covers contain lists of available Ultramarine checklists, and the Zelazny checklist is listed there for $6.95, in contrast to the $7.95 price printed on the front cover. My best guess is that new runs of the pamphlet are printed periodically.

The bibliographic information itself is fairly sparse, compared to the other references available. The 13 page "Books written by RZ" lists books in chronological order, with the standard details. Only a few editions are listed for each book, but there are several listings of uncorrected proofs, which I haven't noticed in any other references.

The 22 page "Short stories written by RZ" also lists works in chronological order, again with relatively few publication listings.

The final section is an alphabetical index of Zelazny's works, with reference letter/number combinations which match up with the entries in the first sections.

Part of the Galactic Central Publications series of bibliographies, and is primarily published as A5 booklets, photocopied and side-stapled. There was at least one edition of Zelazny's bibliography published in hardcover with plain grey boarding, by Borgo Press.

In order, the included sections are: Awards, Pseudonyms, Stories, Books, Series, Poems & Songs, Poem & Song Collections, Articles, Miscellaneous, Non-Fiction Books, Edited Books, Media Presentations, Articles on the Author, Reviews, Books About the Author, Phantom and Forthcoming Titles, Related Works by Other Authors, Textual Variations, and a Chronological Listing of Fiction.

As with Amber Dreams, for both the Stories and the Books sections, chronological listings of publication appearances or editions are given. The Books section includes information on the number of pages of each edition, but no attempt is made to include foreign publications or cover images.
