Shadow of the TorturerSF-Lovers

I was unimpressed by it. Wolfe strikes me as the sort of writer who's desperately trying to produce SF worthy of literary criticism. This seemed particularly true with his "...Other Stories...Other Stories..." collection, and less so with SotT. Maybe it's just because I don't particularly care for fantasy-stories-with-the- proverbial-journey. I didn't much care for Varley's Titan books either.
