More people need to read Gene Wolfe!!! I wanna let this book sit with me for a little before I dive back into the series, but the review for Soldier of Arete will be coming. Thanks for watching
It's a fascinating novel, for sure. The whole amnesia premise can be quite disorientating to read, but works well as a storytelling device. Gene Wolfe's character building in Latro is very compelling. My favourite of the trilogy is Soldier of Sidon, which is a bit of a departure from the first two books as it's set in Egypt.
thanks for watching, i know i was all over the place but maybe that fits with the books theme. Gene Wolfe is such a skilled writer i trust that soldier of sidon is necessary for something other than a cash grab. i loved your top short story video, i dont always leave comments (i watch most of my YT on tv) but i always LIKE.
gene wolfe is the king of unreliable narrators! i can understand where wolfe might not be to everyone's taste but, boy oh boy, he really does it for me. i cannot correct you on anything though as i read these years and years ago. i've got the third volume in the trilogy but haven't gotten to it yet always enjoy your videos cheers
Gene Wolfe is the KING!! People making all those Game of Thrones videos should be making deep dive into the Solar Cycle and Latro in the Mist (Instead you get me ranting)🫠 Cheers
I just finished that last month! So cool to see you reviewing it
