Which Wolfe Should I Read Next?

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.

Is it as bad as they say?

I think I'll go with Doors, based on your suggestion and the fact that
"middle-period fantasist" Wolfe is one of my favorite wolves (Castleview,
Free Live Free) then Robert's pick of The Devil in a Forest.
