Amber

In Roger Zelazny's "Amber" universe, there is only one true world, of which all others are but Shadows. In the ten-book saga that he created, it is learned that "Amber" was not the first true world; rather, it was "The Courts of Chaos." The saga chronicled the adventures of the royal family of Amber, culminating with a worlds-shaking battle between champions from Amber and from Chaos. Zelazny did not have the chance to create the origin of Amber and its royal family, or reveal other key information that is only alluded to, before he died.
