Why not persuade Tor Books to let one of us (say me) read SHORT SUN in advance? A thorough job is guaranteed to be done. A quite different matter: if Gene Wolfe is not the ablest SF writer living (and perish the heretical thought), many would pin the label on Kim Stanley Robinson. There he is, author of rich, copious, many-layered books, and yet I can find almost nothing about him on the Web - no homepage, no discussion site, just a couple of bibliographies and interviews. Does anyone know of any incisive Robinson debates or essays on the Web? Or if not, is anyone interested in helping get a Robinson site going? (It may have been mentioned before somewhere in the Urth Archives, but a note on Wolfe and Robinson: Robinson acknowledges Wolfe as an important influence, and I see his novella cycle ICEHENGE as deliberately analogous in structure and technique to THE FIFTH HEAD OF CERBERUS.) //-------------------------------------- Nicholas Gevers potto at webmail.co.za ---
