Mr. Bear,
I don't have much to say except thank you for your excellent work. You are an outstanding writer, and your exploration of issues and ideas is inspiring. I just finished Queen of Angels--I guess I am a little behind the times--and the analysis and fictional probing of crime, guilt, punishment and consciousness was another home run. Amazing how much you can handle at one time.
Thanks again, all the best, I'm going to start catching up on your more recent novels.

Oh and I should note--the description of the Goldstein's inner world (his "country") was great, wonderfully cinematic, and truly frigtening!
