List & location
I rarely post to the list (don't often have anything interesting/intelligent/worthwhile to add!), but have been reading it for some years. I'm also from the UK and Wolfe has been my favourite author since my Dad gave me _The Shadow of the Torturer_ to read when I was 13 (I'm now 30). I used to read a lot of SF, but not so much these days. Jack Vance, John Crowley and M John Harrison are other great SF favourites of mine. Tom

Also, as this list seems to be the largest
wolfe source on the net I was wondering who the contributers are. Congratulations to all involved by the way. I am just wondering which of you are sci-fi fans and which are general readers. Also where are you from? Im from the UK and ive only met one person whos read BOTN and this person someone who writes on sci fi. Is Wolfe bigger in the US, i'm imagining this list is primarily US? Thanks Ollie W

I also rarely post to this list, largely for reasons of time, alas. I've read sf since I was 7 years old. But I'm also a general reader, I suppose, having been an English prof.
