Also, as this list seems to be  \nthe largest wolfe source on the net I was wondering who the  \ncontributers are. Congratulations to all involved by the way. I am  \njust wondering which of you are sci-fi fans and which are general  \nreaders. Also where are you from? Im from the UK and ive only met  \none person whos read BOTN and this person someone who writes on sci  \nfi. Is Wolfe bigger in the US, i'm imagining this list is primarily  \nUS?\n\nThanks Ollie W\n_________________________________________________________________"

          "text": "I'm 29 and from Saint Louis.  Always been a Sci Fi fan since I saw  \nStar Wars as a kid.  Grew up playing RPGs and got into the fantasy  \ngenre a bit as well.  It wasn't until about 4 years ago that I picked  \nup my first Gene Wolfe book on a whim \"The Knight\", and really enjoyed  \nit.  I've since downed about 12 of his books and have 5 or 6 more on  \nthe shelf waiting to be read.   I've been around nerd and geeks my  \nwhole life and currently work with a whole lot of them at a computer  \nstore and I was the one who discovered and started introducing my  \nfriends to Wolfe's work.  I'd say I have about 3 converts so far.  But  \nit was odd that such a great writer was so barely known.  Which is why  \none has to admit that even though he's good, he's not for everyone.\n\nI hear what you are saying about the lack of Wolfe content online.   \nWhen I first started typing \"Gene Wolfe\" into the Google search box it  \nwas a little disappointing at first.  Truthfully though, there really  \nis a lot of content out there (and a lot that used to be around but is  \nlost) it's just scattered about in little pieces.  I ended up starting  \nmy own Wolfe Fan Site just so I could compile all the different Gene  \nWolfe sources I found online over the past few years.  Check out http://hoofandhide.wordpress.com \n.  You can search for content via keywords (powered by Magnolia) and I  \nrecently put up a gallery of book covers (powered by Flickr).   Maybe  \nyou'll find it helpful when trying to dig up more info on Gene.\n\nRyan B"
