Dear fellow Wolfe fans, << To me, the most easily accomplishable and plausible weapon that humans could have against the inhumi would be the ingestion of some substance. >> I think no one's ever responded to my suggestion, some time ago, that humans might become inhumi-proof with an injection of blood from the Neighbors or "Vanished People." Maybe this suggestion is so boneheaded that it's deserved no reply. But stubbornly I haven't given up on the notion yet, partly because there's some vague hinting (I'll go back to OBW and quote a couple passages if it would help the discussion) about blood brotherhood, so to speak. Any chance of success in this direction, do you think? --Henry Rathvon, Wolfe admirer from way back *This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun.
