it is hard to defend the hill that i will die loneliest on — the excellence of the Merlin Cycle of the Chronicles of Amber — because i uniformly like and appreciate the people it needs defending from and there is little i can say without absolutely going for their throats
that's not unreasonable, though i do feel that the existence of the Logrus was implied strongly enough in the Corwin Cycle. and you're not wrong that them being sapient is a loss, worldbuilding-wise. which is part of why i think that's a red herring

tl;dr "the Pattern and Logrus were never sapient at a level that we could directly communicate with and the appearance of them being so is a result of them being manipulated by Brand and Deirdre's transformed consciousnesses" is not even particularly off the wall for Roger
