final book be _Re-return to the Whorl_?<<

What Clute says in his review is

Blue's Waters has been fully inscribed<<

He's basically pointing out that Horn is writing "on the run", as it were,
and so we will continue to find out what happens to Horn as he makes his way
back to New Viron from Gaon.
