Severian / Christ / Logos / Apocatastasis

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 enjoyed Earthsea, although the first three books and the last one  
are clearly pitched at a young adult audience (numbers four and five  
maybe are as well).

_The Left Hand of Darkness_ is a brilliant if slow-moving travelogue.   
I think it's probably my favorite.
