I read a book!

And it wasn’t even for school!

If you are even remotely capable of enjoying science fiction I highly recommend Gene Wolfe’s The Book of the New Sun.  I posted about the tetralogy this summer here and I just finished the follow-up volume Wolfe’s publisher insisted on: The Urth of the New Sun.  It was wonderful although I firmly believe the tetralogy was complete as it stood.

I am not typically a reader of Sci-Fi but this series came recommended by my friend Brent, who is almost never wrong.  I loved its atmosphere and its language, and I love how subtle and wise it is.  Just read it already!
