So that folks will know that they have something great to look\nforward to.\n\nI was totally satisfied with it as an end to this cycle.\nI was emotionally moved by it more than any of the other short sun books.\nI was surprised again and again all the way through it.\nI think it's one of Wolfe's best works of a series.\nI don't think that anyone here on the list will be disappointed......\n\nH.
