Resident Wolfefags pls respond.
If any of this gets answered in the third book then don't bother:
I understand how the chariot race at the end of the second book ties into the politics but how does it tie into the bigger subplot of Gaea vs Artemis?

What is the significance of the dream involving Polos Latro seems to share with Pasicrates and why does it change the Spartan's mood and behaviour so much?

Did the Spartans kill all the slaves after the ceremony that was supposed to free them?
Why?
Why was Latro spared?

I might not remember this correctly but what happens with the oracle that Pausanias(?) will lead the slaves of the rope makers to freedom? I mean the one that happens after the child sacrifice scene in the first book.

I can never get a thread going about this.
Am I the only one who read it?

How is Latro in the Mist? I haven't read any Wolfe and I don't feel like reading capeshit BotNS even though I have it.

Gene Wolfe's Soldier series.
The narration is almost dream-like because the unreliable narrator suffers from memory loss.
It's like a big puzzle about your favorite greek gods and mythical creatures, and at the same time grounded in the historical reality of the Greco-Persian war.

Reading Latro in the Mist right now.
Are you supposed to look up words and names every two pages? I'm not complaining desu. Shit's fun. Feels a bit like deciphering an ancient scroll.
Also pls post your best Gene Wolfe reaction images and memes for me, /sffg/.
