Okay WTF

• Silk's head is on Pas/Typhon?? Written by Horn in the end? So much dialogue in this book. Must read short sun next.
• Gene Wolfe, being a devout Catholic, appears to have written Silk as Moses - someone who is living in an Egyptian society with its polytheism, but who believes in monotheism.
• Common themes of Severian and Silk: both limping, both bad (torturer vs Typhon genes) people trying to do good
