A chapter-by-chapter spoiler intense deep dive into Gene Wolfe's "The Book of the New Sun" stewing in unhinged speculation.

As your semi-benevolent overlord, I shall offer a gargantuan bag of money to Steven Soderbergh to make a multi-part adaptation of "The Book of the New Sun". I trust him to do it right and stay on budget.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

this. I would also demand his Perdido Street Station and The Course of the Heart, and Revivified David Lynch's Book of the New Sun five season miniseries.
Guillermo Del Toro's "At the Mountains of Madness."

Ha ha, I cannot dispute anything I find on the internet, nor do I have to time to track down a printed copy of Hamlet. All I got is Raymond Chandler and Vonnegut and Gene Wolfe.

I helped build miniscule portions of the internet and it has become an essential tool in the Great Undoing.

What if the Byzantine Empire reclaimed the decaying Roman Empire…and there were vampires, Christianity never took off, and wizards wandered the land? The Dragon Waiting was endorsed by Gene Wolfe, and he was right - amazing alternate history/fantasy. Well worth reading! (29/40) #booksky

How many Gene Wolfe works are there that are like, Ulysses but for the Wizard of Oz instead of the Odyssey. It's more than one, certainly

" Me volví para ver los grandes hoplones y las lanzas del enemigo irrumpiendo a través de la niebla, y por encima de todo ello se alzó una negra nube de flechas, jabalinas y proyectiles de honda ".

" Soldado de la niebla "
