From the Back Cover
Riveting revelations! Puzzling paradoxes! Marvelous mysteries! This book is guaranteed to explicate, to your full satisfaction, Gentleman Gene's magisterial five-book masterpiece The Book of the New Sun. No longer need you be confused, troubled, or haunted at night: just read this answer book every day and you will be satisfied.
The Guide, in many ways a literary supplement for the dictionary Lexicon Urthus, is designed for use by first-time readers of The Book as well as those who are reading it again. In each chapter The Guide points out allusions to literature and genre. There are no spoilers, but things will be noted as they are revealed.
Gene Wolfe is widely acknowledged as a heavy hitter in the "science fiction as literature" camp. His thirty-one novels to date have won him two World Fantasy Awards, a Nebula award, a British Fantasy Award, and an Apollo, among many others.
Michael Andre-Driussi established himself as a Wolfe scholar with books Lexicon Urthus (1994), The Wizard Knight Companion (2009), Gate of Horn, Book of Silk (2012), and Gene Wolfe: 14 Articles on His Fiction (2014).
