Reviews
- My Gateway Into Wolfe
I started listening to Phil and Metz’s podcast midway through Claw of the Conciliator and have followed it through the solar cycle as I go through my first read. They do a wonderful job creating a welcoming listening environment for the first time reader, not spoiling the books, but instead, helping contextualizing the chapters as they move through the books. This podcast is responsible for keeping me engaged with Wolfe and pushing me to further engage with his work.

Phil and Metz definitely helped my understanding of the entirety of BOTNS and Urth. Little details I might have missed or thought insignificant were expanded on in ways I probably wouldn’t have caught till a 3rd or 4th read. Recommend for anyone reading the Solar Cycle! Can’t wait for their conclusion of Long and Short sun! - Fellow Funko Disliker

Have to admit, when I found a podcast about Gene Wolfe, I was ready for it to be suuuuper dry but you guys are great, keep it up!
Apple Podcasts5BluedeviltjUnited States2 years ago - Essential listening for your Wolfe reading!
These guys helped me appreciate Wolfe's writing on a much deeper level than I would have been able to on my own. Now I can't get enough of Wolfe - what a writer - thanks, guys!
