Nightwings is still the best work I've read from him. It reads a lot more like his more reflective later work. It's also like a more simply told and elegiac Jack Vance story, not only in its Dying Earth sort of setting but also in its rigidly structured society of guilds and their customs.

I notice it was paired with Vance's The Last Castle in one of those Tor doubles, in what would have been a very appealing sight on the wire racks in the 1980's.
