I’m reading Shadow and Claw, First Book of the New Sun by Gene Wolfe. I am a prolific reader, often reading 2-4 books a week. This one I have been reading for a week now and I’m only half way through. I have to stop often and look up the meanings of words often because the verbiage is rich and dense, and not in common circulation anymore. I am not loving it, nor hating it, just enjoying it. It’s just so unlike anything I’ve read before and I highly recommend it.
