Nine Princes In Amber by Roger Zelazny
The book revolves around a protagonist who awakens with amnesia in a hospital on Earth and soon discovers he is a member of a royal family from Amber, the one true world of which all others, including Earth, are but shadows. As he regains his memory, he learns that he is one of nine brothers vying for the throne in a realm where politics are as perilous as swordplay, and betrayal is common. The protagonist must navigate a complex web of intrigue, magic, and shifting alliances in his quest to claim his rightful place in the eternal city. His journey is fraught with danger as he battles unknown enemies and seeks to unravel the mysteries of his past and the nature of Amber itself.
