Book 1 done, a rather abrupt ending, too. Framed as Gene Wolfe translating the journal of a protagonist from the future (described as a posthistoric from a world surviving many centuries of futurity). He mixes in archaic terminology in lieu of the made-up words fantasy authors resort to.

I like the writing and the setting, but the dream-like narrator digressions and characters were detractions.
