Afterword
View through CrossRef
The afterword summarizes Zelazny’s posthumous publications while noting the falling off of academic criticism of Zelazny’s work. It also notes several signs of increased interest in Zelazny’s work since 2010 including a rise in posthumous publications and reissues, a spark of interest in adapting Zelazny’s work for television, and the testimony of a new generation of writers profoundly influenced by Zelazny’s fiction. The afterword concludes by reiterating its argument against dismissing Zelazny’s career as early brilliance followed by a steep decline and suggesting that both the commercial work and the more artistically ambitious stories were equally deliberate and were, in the end, different expressions of the same impulse: to write exactly what he wanted to write, exactly how he wanted to write it.
