It wouldn't have been fair to them if you hadn't played your\nbest.\" and OBW's \"I have snatched the ball and won the game\" through to\nHorn's advice to Mora that fair means everyone is allowed to do her best.\n\nIs this Wolfe's most didactic book?  I don't mean it reads like he's\npreaching at us, but Horn seems to make far more observations and speeches\nabout what is right than I can recall from any other Wolfe character, even\nSilk.\n\nI had inferred from Horn's descriptions of the plants and terrain of Green\nin OBW that Green's gravity was significantly lower than Blue's, but I\ndidn't see any indication of that in IGJ.  Did I miss some subtle hints\nthat Green has low (Lunar?) gravity?\n\n-Rostrum\n\n\n*This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun."
