Wait, what? SIX book series? It's four, with an optional fifth, but what's the sixth?
Stay healthy,

The most important thing is to have six cardinal points of the compass, not four. Second, to have south be up. I'm not certain that the people from earth carry this over to the new sun, but it would indicate an awareness that, in this series, Wolfe deliberately did everything different from the way we do things.

Best,

Centipede Press <jerad at centipedepress.com><mailto:jerad at centipedepress.com> asks:

Okay. I might be sorry I asked this, but who are the “Gene Wolfe” people out there? As you know, I am doing new editions of the six-book The Book of the New Sun series. One nice thing to have would be new maps. I found an artist in France who does this sort of work with flair and panache, but the artist is looking for help with the basic structure of the The Book of the New Sun’s world. If you’re the Gene Wolfe fan who obsesses over this, and has rigorously analyzed all of the maps thus far created (there’s one on Wikipedia, and one created by Gurps, too, among several others) — your help is requested with this project. All I need to know is what is (are) considered the most regarded and considered the most accurate map(s). My map maker can extrapolate from there and make it into something amazing. If you’re that person, who’s really really really into this, and who knows the subject backwards and forwards, please give me a shout!
