New Gene Wolfe booksSF-Lovers

I spoke briefly with Gene Wolfe at Boskone. He said that he has a contract for a series of historical novels. They'll be set in Greece, Rome, Ancient Egypt, etc. He seemed quite excited about the whole thing, remarking that the one he really couldn't wait to get started on was the one set in Ancient Egypt. As a student of hieroglypics, I couldn't agree with him more. iw.i m rswt
