(Lupin Publishings) A new and scurrious publication about the new generation of princesses in Amber who were recently called to Court by King Oberon and how their sensational and zany exploits are rocking a kingdom for good and for ill.
The first part of the book gives the standard history of Amber's traditional princesses: Florimel Queen of France, political swing vote in interneccine squablles, lover of Napoleon and Mussolini and a known max cat abuser; Fiona, Haven hating bitch with a predisposition to stab her brothers in the liver after keeping them prisoner in some bizarre S&M scene and being a know-it-all who think she's Creation's gift to sorcery while plotting to put bastards on Swayville's throne; Llewella, an abyss sea hag who has a grudge match with Osric whom in Amber is demure and polite; Deirdre, secret ally of Brand and mother of Lazare through the House of Sawall and arch enemy of Eric.
The second section reviews the new Amber of Oberon. There is an examination of how his Third Reign differered from his First Reign or the short Second Reign where he masterminded Thelbane's collapse at Patternfall including using Dara to challenge Borel, Fiona's plot against Brand, Llewella's secret attack at Linchester and Osricways, pinning down Finndo and Osric and Bances to protect the Chaos Conservative Heartland.
The main body of the book profiles each of Amber's princesses:
Alexis: A peace corps drop out who flitted between soup kitchen good will worker to a socialite dripping enough diamonds to rival Olivia of Olympica. This chick is a beacon of civilization in Amber where she is taking on her own backward Luddite House to establish health care and animal welfare while being Ministeress of Public Works. She is also prone to sneaking on missions to Haven and loading up on any trace of civilization including a ten year supply of Starbucky's coffee! She also is reported to be collecting more shoes than Queen Jasra!
Breyd: This daring girl recently was found with a bic razor in Princess Cher's bedroom with Balaam. Nicknamed Pepper, Amber's Lord Mayoress is hell on wheels. This girl is the epitome of Girl Power without the Mecklenberg system to keep her in line! A perfect candidate for Reiner's Bad Girl's Club! She recently was with Alexis in Haven City where she exibited the manners of a hussy, the vocabulary of a steveador, and the body odour of Allen Unkerr! She is a fan of mad dancing and Jocko's DJing at the Webb. She also is a wild child and was seen partying with Prince Sean and Prince George "Stobby" Von Mecklenberg at Bombay's several times.
Cher: This young princess has a foreign name that we, in Haven, refuse to even try to spell out. Princess Breyd explained that her name is Anglilized to be spelled like the 70s singer. However Princess Cher is no where as skinny. She was recently made Mistress of Ceremonies for Amber's Court and Haven Court protocol experts expect everyone to be wearing polyester leisure suits and doing disco to the sounds of Boogie Fever. She is in a strange love/hate relationship with Princess Pepper.
Jada: The Princess Matilda of Amber! This girl is little better than a thug. She beat up social activist Mad Abigail and also vandalized garbage cans Alexis set up, for cheap thrills. She is harbour mistress and went on strike in a recent spat with Lord Mayoress "Pepper" Breyd. Jada is a partisan of Rory and has been known to war wirth Alexis and Dunstree. She has a special emnity for the former Lord Mayor whom she calls a wimp citing "Even King Jason of NS would be a better mayor than this gelding!"
Jessa: Nicknamed Jessa the Just. Oberon's eyes and ears. Recently promoted to being Minister of Trade, this quiet demure Princess is known for her good taste in linen and for being determined to put an end to the horrors in Ardor where Prince Rory has been waging a secret war against the Empire of Tanturak and the Mumakan peoples. She recently revealed to the Court, the extent of Rory practicing republicanism, mass slavery and kiddie Thulist blood rituals taught to him by his Brandite allies.
Sabine: This wild child has a wicked sword arm and is the "Brown Sonya" of Amber City. She is reportedly an ally of Rory and has been known to stand up to the other powerful princesses of Amber. This girl is known for her and Zariya dispatching a fire angel who came to Amber for tea. Armed with a battle ax and a large zweihander, this girl can really go to town and hack up anything that offends the Glory of King Oberon. She is still having trouble handling another dangerous weapon, a dinner knife and her table manners are the dispair of Dame Margot. Reports are that she is compared to Rory as far as her court etiquette.
Zariya: Another foreign name. She is a daughter of Caine and not to be trusted at all. However she is a powerful counter balance to Rory's evil schemes to promote Brand Worship (banned in Haven) in Ardor. The only good thing about Caine and Canaanites is their hatred of Brand Worship. She is the Amber satrap over Brandite territory. She was last in Garnath demanding tribute from Kirk's horribly obese talking cat. She is reported to be one of the many women in love with the roue from Koronande, Si Maelstrom. She is also wicked with her scimitar.
