Title: An truly unique and fascinating science fiction/fantasy.
Review: Often considered Gene Wolfe's masterpiece, "The Book of theNew Sun" is a dark and supurbly detailed chronicle of a life'sjourney through an Earth so far in the future that magic and scienceare indistiguishable from each other. Now re-released ina quality paperback book format, the the five-part seriesleads the protagonist, Severian, on a life's journey whereboth his personal identity and the fabric of reality oftenblur. It is a retelling of a life of discovery, adventure,love, and terror unlike any other. Gene Wolfe executes hisprose with a simple humanity which lends reality and credenceto an otherwize bizarre and frightening vision. This is atruly unique experience and a must-read for both the sci-fiand fantasy buff.
