Gary K. Wolfe

.At the invitation of publisher Charles R. Brown, I began writing a monthly book review column for Locus:  The Newsmagazine of the Science Fiction Field in late 1991.  Soundings collects most of the reviews from my first five years there.

"Gary Wolfe is one of speculative fiction's smartest observers and wisest critics.  He's funny and trenchant, always acute and always perceptive.  We are fortunate to have him."   --Neil Gaiman

.

"This is a book not only to be read but cherished by all those who value science fiction as a thoughtful, ever-evolving literary genre.  With his friend John Clute, Gary Wolfe is its best and most influential critic, and these lengthily reviews, witty and comprehensively informed, are always a pleasure to read."   -- Peter Straub
