Evil Guest Reviewed in Washington Post SF Roundup

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 can feel his pain...AEG wasn't my favorite...but as an artist/entertainer/musician (?) 
I have fans who complain if I don't play my "hits" from my first albums (remember "albums"?) and those who rip me? a new one for playing the same old stuff over and over....


Garden Party anyone???....

The Strange Horizons review captures a great deal of what I think about
Wolfe, especially recent works such as "Memorare," _Pirate Freedom_
and now
_Evil Guest_.  All have hidden depths that make them well worth exploring
and reward rereading, but am I the only one who feels that Wolfe is on the
verge (if not past it) of making the initial reading experience off-putting?
