Kicking off the fifth and final book of the Corwin chronicles: The Courts of Chaos.

It's Brand against the family, as Oberon works behind the scenes to set up the showdown in Tir-na Nog'th. At the same time, Martin is returned to Amber, but as something of a Trojan horse. In this episode we cover the final two chapters of The Hand of Oberon, leading up to perhaps the largest reveal of the entire series. 

Corwin returns to Shadow Earth, and we'll discuss Bill Roth in more detail. Joined by Fiona, Corwin then journeys to the Primal Pattern to challenge Brand. In the episode we address the question, how big is the Jewel of Judgment? And I will share some thoughts about Caine's ambitions.

Corwin is putting the pieces together, and confronts Brand. Later, he reunites with Benedict, gets a fresh perspective on Eric, and reaches a new understanding with Julian. The characters are changing, Corwin is evolving, and we will discuss how these pivots make us hopeful for the Royal House of Amber.

Corwin dives deeper into the origin story of Amber, and makes a short trip to The Courts of Chaos. Even more complexity is introduced with regards to time differentials and timelines. 

With the introduction of Martin, we will analyze more of the timeline of events leading up to Corwin's story. As random goes to look for his sone, Corwin head back to Amber, and has an epiphany talking with Vialle. He then revisits his old jail cell, and locates Dworkin. In this episode, we also explore the cameo of "Roger", the guard in the dungeon writing a novel.

With this episode, we introduce the fourth book of the Corwin chronicles: The Hand of Oberon. The story picks up where it left off at the end of Sign of the Unicorn, as Corwin begins to understand the nature of reality, and origin of the Black Road, and the nature of challenge that Amber now faces.

As we barrel toward the conclusion of Sign of the Unicorn, in one of the best chapters in the whole series, we mainly tackle the issue of the line of succession to the throne in Amber.

With this episode, we unpack Corwin's evening in Tir-na Nog'th... the implications for geography, the confusing backstory of Grayswandir, and the references to Irish mythologies.
