Four chapters into _Soldier of Sidon

I got my copy of Soldier of Sidon yesterday at Borders in Palo Alto, California. I'm only four chapters in so far, but everything so far is encouraging. It's written in Wolfe's smoothest style: so far, I haven't had to re-scan any paragraphs unless I enjoyed them. If you liked the down-to-earth, realistic portrayal of the Athenians and other Hellenes in the first two Soldier books, you'll probably like the Phoenicians and Egyptians in this one. Happy reading! -- Dan Rabin
