Another G.Wolfe book set in Urth milieu?

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.

Ahem.  CALDE OF THE LONG SUN is the _third_ volume of the new four-volume
BOOK OF THE LONG SUN.  The first volume, NIGHTSIDE THE LONG SUN, has been
out in hardcover for several months and will appear in paperback this
December.  The second volume, LAKE OF THE LONG SUN, will appear in January
1994.  CALDE OF THE LONG SUN will appear in late 1994.  All from Tor.

(The British publisher is New English Library; the hardcover packages are
identical.)
