New Sun Religion #7 [Spoilers]

Something of a Summation. [Reprise from New Sun Religion #4] The bringer of the New Sun will be a hero, possibly a world redeemer, but definitely not a messiah (Old Testament military version or New Testament non-military version). The bringer of the New Sun is not a village scapegoat, nor a global sin payment, but instead an advocate who will (somehow) bring about global revival through the lifti Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Michael Andre-Driussi (?)

“There was a time when I could put the palm of my hand flat on the front of a tattered paperback called The Dying Earth and feel the magic seeping through the cardboard: Turjan of Miir, Liane the Wayfarer, T’sais, Chun the Unavoidable. Nobody I knew had so much as heard of that book, but I knew it was the finest book in the world. (Castle of Days, 211)”
― Michael Andre-Driussi, Gene Wolfe's The Book of the New Sun: A Chapter Guide

“In my GEnie days (1991-1996?) I discussed the fiction of Gene Wolfe with Greg Feeley, Neil Gaiman, Joe Mayhew, Michael Swanwick, and Jeff Wilson, among others. I published Lexicon Urthus in 1994. The Lexicon brought me letters from David Langford. It also brought me friendship with Alice K. Turner (1939-2015), and she talked me into joining the Urth List in 1997. There I met many, but for this application I will limit the roll to Marc Aramini, Robert Borski, Craig Brewer, Bill Carmichael, Roy C. Lackey, Jonathan Laidlow, Dan Parmenter, Nigel Price, Pedro Jorge Romero, and James Wynn.”
