Hi all,

    It's been a very, very long time since I've posted anything on here.  I 
haven't even been reading it as much as I probably should so maybe this was 
discussed in my absence, but I'll ask anyway.  Has anyone read The Devil in a 
Forest?  What were your thoughts on it?  I just finished reading it and 
looking back over it, it seems very simple compared to Wolfe's other works.  
Was it one of Wolfe's earlier novels?  Just wondering if anyone has any 
thoughts on it.

-Steve

I believe Devil was originally published as a work for children.

Best,

	I think it was aimed at high school aged children. The religious and
political themes anticipate the Severian novels.
