Synopsis
Gene Wolfe 's Return to the Whorl is the third volume, after On Blue's Waters and In Green's Jungles , of his ambitious SF trilogy The Book of the Short Sun . . . It is again narrated by Horn, who has embarked on a quest in search of the heroic leader Patera Silk. Horn has traveled from his home on the planet Blue, reached the mysterious planet Green, and visited the great starship, the Whorl and even, somehow, the distant planet Urth. But Horn's identity has become ambiguous, a complex question embedded in the story, whose telling is itself complex, shifting from place to place, present to past. Perhaps Horn and Silk are now one being. Return to the Whorl brings Wolfe's major new fiction, The Book of the Short Sun, to a strange and seductive climax.

    Shoes were not the size listed. HOWEVER, seller was fantastic. After I messed up with the return request, (selecting wrong size, should have selected not as described. What is the difference? One I'd get a full refund the other I pay almost as much to send them back as they costed. And ebay cannot undo that.) SO the seller just refunded me. Now this is a good seller. Mistakes happen, we get it. Fixing it, that's rare. THANK YOU! I will donate these. Someone will get warm feet.
