Lord CorwinCorwin was the main character in the first five books of Roger Zelazny's Amber novels, and a Prince of Amber. The first series focus' on Corwin's bid for the throne of Amber after his father's disappearance. Although not first born, but due to the nature of his father's earlier marriages he was the first of the Princes to be born safely in wedlock and thus he himself considered himself to be the main frontrunner for the throne. Centuries ago whilst his father was still ruling in Amber he dueled with his elder brother Eric, a bastard (technically though Corwin would have you believe more than just this) and lost. Eric fearing their father's wrath dumped Corwin in shadow in Elizabethean England during the time of the plague. Corwin recovered, but his memory was lost and he proceeded to live out several hundred years of earth history until the seventies. The series begins with him still an amnesiac but recovering from a recent car accident and several clues arrive pointing him in the direction of Amber and the throne.
