I think the first and last stories in "Strange Travelers"..."B Jam". takes some work to figure out what's going on...and "Ain't we..." twists thinks all around.
That and the "Dr Death..." book got me hooked

How dare you post an actual Wolfe question to this list!
 
But anyway, I'm interested in such a pointer as well, for various friends who are in the same situation.

I've got a friend who's been on the fence about reading New Sun for a
few years. No amount of talk from me will get him to start it. Can anyone point
to an easily accessible review that seems to do a nice job of enticing someone
to get into it? This guy's patient, so length is no problem. In fact,
I'd probably give him Clute's stuff from Stokes if I still had my copy.
