Gene Wolfe - When's the Next Book Due?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

   Not too long ago, someone "in the know" posted that _Calde_ has been
submitted to the publishers and that Wolfe had begun work on the fourth
book (Is this to be another tetrology?).  I suspect _Calde_ will be
released about this time next year.
   I'm about 2/3 of the was through _Lake_, and I've found it to be
entertaining but less subtle than _Book of the New Sun_ or the _Soldier of
the Mist_ (still looking for _Arete_; grumble).  Those other works may
require more work from the reader, but the "payoff" was well worth it,
IMHO.
