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.

solar labyrinth. this list is so good, i doubt any criticism of gene wolfe
is even neccesary; it's far more difficult to find a tolkien (especially
since the films) or william gibson discussion group anywhere close.  but i
wonder about this book. if someone says its even half way decent, im going
to get a copy.<<

Yes, I've read it, but I'm somewhat biased. Here's a link to another
opinion, a sample from the book, a review and the publisher.
