Lexicon Urthus is an alphabetical dictionary for the complete Urth Cycle by Gene Wolfe: The Shadow of the Torturer; The Claw of the Conciliator; The Sword of the Lictor; The Citadel of the Autarch; the sequel Urth of the New Sun; the novella Empires of Foliage and Flower; the short stories "The Cat," "The Map," and "The Old Woman Whose Rolling Pin Is the Sun"; and Gene Wolfe's own commentaries...
This dictionary requires a prior affinity and affection for fantasy writer Gene Wolfe's titles: those with such a background and with strong insights into his 'new sun' books will find this a strong Urth cycle reference, referencing not only his novels and novellas, but articles. An invaluable reference to any who are more than casual followers of Wolfe's worlds. -- Midwest Book Review
