A classic from one of the most skilled SciFi writers I’ve ever read. Wolfe’s writing is gorgeous, and his characters are complex and compelling. Cerberus definitely feels like the early work it is, before Wolfe’s writing truly blossomed, but it’s an engaging read nonetheless. If you like puzzles and are willing to take the time to really parse things out as you read (and reread) this trio, you’re in for a treat. 

A deep deconstruction of concepts of self and other, and the lasting impacts and complexities of colonial and settler ideologies. Shows it’s age at times, but overall a thoughtful and provoking read. Great read for lovers of non-traditional story structure. A rich and deep narrative which leaves you with many questions without answer through three distinct but interconnected vignettes. Light on world-building too if you like sci-fi but not so much that you want a dictionary for their new words for everything.
