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.

Wolverphiles,

Contrary to earlier indications (listings in _Locus_ etc) Gene Wolfe's
second book set in ancient Greece _Soldier_of_Arete_ will not be pubbed
in June 89, but in September.

The third book, tentatively titled _Soldier_of_Sidon_ remains unwritten
as Tor, Wolfe's publisher, is not obliged to buy it.

Without giving anything away, it is possible for Wolfe to stop the series
after _Arete_ or to go on if Tor change their minds.
