I wrote some thoughts on this novella (from *The Island of Doctor Death and
Other Stories and Other Stories*) on my Gene Wolfe blog here:

http://silkandhornheresy.blogspot.com/2011/03/tracking-song.html

I love this story.  Does anyone know if it's referencing any myths or
anything?  And did you notice how it pre-references some themes from the
Solar Cycle (such as vampire-bat-people, different sizes of humans,
forgotten technology, etc.)?
