This is so much more blatant than Book of the New Sun. Blatantly fantastical at least, I wouldn't say Long Sun's story is any less obscured and layered, but damn, there's some wild stiff happening and it's not hidden behind Severian's familiarity or manipulations

Silk, a character in a Gene Wolfe novel, considering the tricks that one can play with words and realizing that he had thought he had been told one thing when he actually hadn't been told anything of the sort. Next he'll look at the camera and say "it's time for... an Exodus From the Long Sun!"

I keep forgetting that Wolfe is a funny writer too. He uses it like a scalpel, so I guess it's easy to forget

Oh I cannot shake the feeling that Mayera Mint is in even more danger than it seems
