If this hasn't already been shared (or shared in a long while), I would like to point to this early late 80's/early 90's music video inspired by the Book of the New Sun. You will notice several inaccuracies I am sure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqY0dCmAyNM Good for a laugh... Almost makes me feel like a film adaptation is possible.. Or maybe not. =] - Telpeurion --- ### Dave Tallman *24 Dec 2009, 14:33 · in reply to Christopher Hettinger* How many details can one video possibly get wrong? 1) Severian and other torturers wearing shirts. 2) Sharp point at the end of Terminus Est. 3) The Claw represented by some sort of blue glass wind-chime ornament. 4) Severian with brown hair instead of black, and not clean-shaven. 5) Thecla's cell should have a door, not bars. 6) Severian fetched from in front of the tomb to begin his exile, instead of from a cell. --- ### Stuart Hamm *24 Dec 2009, 17:05 · follows Dave Tallman* Ha!

I thought about posting a comment on the video: "Here's what Severian looks like." But I couldn't find anything on the Web. Is there an image anywhere, maybe made by a fan, that shows him as he looked between getting and losing Terminus Est?

Wtih mask, there are numerous image hits when one googles "severian", but as for without the mask - what actor in what role would you say he he resembles? ``` Jeff Wilson - jwilson at io.com IEEE Student Chapter Blog at < http://ieeetamut.org > ``` --- ### Jerry Friedman *25 Dec 2009, 15:15 · in reply to Jeff Wilson* > --- On Thu, 12/24/09, Jeff Wilson wrote: > Jerry Friedman wrote: ... >> I thought about posting a comment on the video: "Here's >> what Severian looks like."?

If we're going to do that again, I'll just watch, since I don't see many movies and don't know what most actors look like. But someone who's tall, thin, dark-haired, and pale-skinned. I could have played Severian. Twenty-five years ago. If I could act.

I even named my one-man band after a Wolfe story. My lastest album has a couple Wolfe-inspired songs on it, namely "Allowin's Necklace" and "The Packerhaus Method."
