newbie seeks info?

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.

Jonathan,

Another English fan here. You could do worse than picking up a copy of
Wolfes non-fiction/fiction  book "Castle of Days" which contains "The Book
of Days" an excellent short story collection, some new essays and "The
Castle of the Otter" which is described as a book about The Book of the New
Sun. Unfortunatly I don't think it is in print anymore my edition is a US
hardback from Tor. Try the Waterstones or Dillons websites for in print
details. If you want more info E-mail me privately and we'll take it from
there.=20

Good Hunting
