Wolfe's Out-of-Print Novels

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.

I haven't read Operation ARES, but for the others I would personally rank them:

Free Live Free (best)
Castleview
The Devil in a Forest
Pandora by Holly Hollander

in terms of their depth, thought-provokingness, delving into Wolfean 
themes, etc.

All are well worth reading though!

best,

Mo
