Interesting is hardly the word for Clute's speculation, quoted above. It
don't make no sense! I think it is pretty clear that Horn has visited and
returned from The Whorl already by the time he has written OBW from the
hints contained within. If that is so, then shouldn't the title of the
final book be _Re-return to the Whorl_?

Well, one more reason I just can't wait.
