  Title: Today We Choose Faces
  Passage: Today We Choose Faces is a 1973 science fiction novel by American writer Roger Zelazny.  As originally constructed, Part 1 was an extensive flashback which followed Part 2, but the order of the sections was changed at the request of editor David Hartwell, who felt that the novel worked better in chronological order.  Zelazny later wrote, “I was younger then & more in need of the money at the time & couldn’t afford to argue [with] him about it.  I still prefer it the way I wrote it.”
  Title: Bridge of Ashes
  Passage: Bridge of Ashes is an experimental science fiction novel by author Roger Zelazny.  The paperback edition was published in 1976 and the hardcover in 1979.  Zelazny describes the book as one of five books from which he learned things “that have borne me through thirty or so others.”  He states that he “felt that if I could pull it off I could achieve some powerful effects.  What I learned from this book is something of the limits of puzzlement in that no man’s land between suspense and the weakening of communication.”

  Title: Unicorn Variations
  Passage: Unicorn Variations is a collection of stories and essays by American author Roger Zelazny, published in 1983.  The title story, "Unicorn Variation", was written as a result of Zelazny having been asked to contribute to two different upcoming anthologies — one collecting stories set in bars, and one collecting stories about unicorns.  When Zelazny mentioned these requests to his close friend George R. R. Martin, Martin told Zelazny of a third upcoming anthology — one which would collect stories about chess — and jokingly suggested that Zelazny write a story about playing chess against a unicorn in a bar, so that he could sell the story three times.  Zelazny did just that and then went on to win a Hugo Award for the story.
