There's a story in the 'Endangered Species' collection involving some sort of 'dark matter' life.

- Gerry Quinn

  From: DAVID STOCKHOFF 
  Another possibility is that Wolfe simply chose to ignore those complications. As an engineer, he is sometimes very technical---see the remarkably elegant explanation presented in this list for the Long Sun. But he is not really a hard-SF kind of guy, not when details might get in the way, and maybe especially in terms of biology. And he's never proposed non-carbon life or non-iron blood in any story, as far as I know.
