Was there any reason why the ship in _Return_ \nhad to be the _Samru_?  I didn't notice any particular continuity in \nthe character of the captain, nor any motivation for his later kind \ntreatment of Severian.\n\nIn _Urth of the New Sun_, the boat that picks up Severian happens to be Eata's.\n\nI also have a nit concerning Blood's mansion.  Wasn't it off the Old \nPalustria Road in _Long Sun_?  In _Return_, it's on the road from \nViron that ends in Endroad.  Perhaps the road doesn't go all the way \nto Palustria any more?\n\n   -- Dan Rabin\n\n*This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun."
