Sorcerer's House: First Impressions *spoilage*

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'm writing this up before reading any of the stuff that's come over
the list, which I've kept isolated in a folder of its own.

I finished TSH yesterday and it seemed to me remarkably free of
"Huh?"s. By which I mean, by the end of the book I think Wolfe cleared
up most if not all of the mysteries pretty, uh, clearly. By the time
we find out who Bax's birth-parents are, the rest seems pretty
straighforward.

Straighforward for Wolfe, that is...
