And thanks for posting on "Thou Spark of Blood." Sounds like something worth looking for after all, though not worth paying an exorbitant amount for.
Right. Further context on my situation: at a new used-book store I happened upon a big collection of "Worlds of If." Since I keep a booklist or two in my wallet, it was easy to look up what I wanted. I paid $2.
So while I have been "looking" for it for years, I haven't strained myself at it.
More context on reading: I anticipated something more like Wolfe's story "Cherry Jubilee" crossed with that original Star Trek series episode ("Conscience of the King," was it?) of using a Shakespearean play to expose a disguised killer, somehow. I was completely surprised, since it isn't like that at all.
