Gene Wolfe, certain books any good?

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.

One could also mention The Fifth Head of Cerberus, which was his second
published novel (1972), and already a masterpiece. It is made of three
closely related stories, about power, cloning and extraterrestrial
anthropology (yes !), but to explain how the stories are related would
clearly spoil your pleasure...
