From: "William H. Ansley" <wansley@warwick.net> Subject: (urth) The Wonderful Eyeflash of Oz, part 1A (buy the book) Date: Sat, 30 Jan 1999 00:55:19 I don't intend on doing a detailed summary of the whole plot of "The Eyeflash Miracles" because it would take too long; I am going to concentrate on the parts with Oz references. For those of you who are interested in my annotations and would like to be able to follow along, I recommend that you re-read the story. Here is where to find it (information I should have given back at the beginning of Part 1), _The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories and Other Stories_. I just checked Amazon.com (I have no affiliation with Amazon except for buying a lot of books from them) and to my surprise found that the book has been reprinted. It is a wonderful collection and well worth having, even for the slightly pricey $11.96 Amazon is charging ($2.99 off the cover price, however). It contains: The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories Alien Stones La Befana The Hero as Werwolf Three Fingers The Death of Dr. Island Feather Tigers Hour of Trust Tracking Song The Toy Theater The Doctor of Death Island Cues The Eyeflash Miracles Seven American Nights If you just can't wait to get your copy you can use the URL below to go directly to the book's page on Amazon.com (if it has wrapped and been broken with a return by your email program, you'll have to paste it back together): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312863543/qid%3D917668868/002-8620729-75 57411 If you want to benefit a Wolfe fan with a nice Wolfe web site, buy it from his link to Amazon, which you can get to here: http://world.std.com/~pduggan/wolfestore.html Unfortuately, our list's web bookstore with links to Amazon.com doesn't have this book, but you can go to the URL below and buy other books which will provide a very small financial kickback (to Ranjit, I suppose) which will help support the list. http://www.moonmilk.com/whorl/ William Ansley P.S. mantis, I am working hard on part 2. *More Wolfe info & archive of this list at http://www.urth.net/urth/
