A long-time Wolfe fan, since the 60's. I recently read an advance copy of RETURN TO THE WHORL that I stumbled upon. I wanted to say a few things about my reactions to it without spoiling anything. So that folks will know that they have something great to look forward to. I was totally satisfied with it as an end to this cycle. I was emotionally moved by it more than any of the other short sun books. I was surprised again and again all the way through it. I think it's one of Wolfe's best works of a series. I don't think that anyone here on the list will be disappointed...... H.

At least Kevin Maroney was too polite too explicitly come out and state that he had received and read an advance copy of RTW (not that it wasn't clearly implied). Sorry, but jealousy make us say ugly things. -- William Ansley *This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
