You know, I actually did read On Blue's Waters, then stopped and went back
and read Long Sun before then re-reading Blue and the rest of Short Sun. It
was indeed a very, very strange experience - but hugely enticing.
Unfortunately it took away some of the mystery I think I would have
encountered in reading Long Sun if I had had no or little clue what was
coming.
I think John Clute wondered in a review whether jumping right into Wolfe at
Blue might be the best way. I've always wondered the same.
