Reception

Dave Langford reviewed Aurelia for White Dwarf #41, and stated that "this is Lafferty, pushing 70 but still a bizarre and original author who's an acquired taste, and the book bulges with jokes and philosophy (hard to spot which is which), tall tales and weird people; horned men, sinister yo-yos, doppelgangers, the extra prime number between 5 and 7, and a worm with a gun. Indescribable. I loved it."[1]

gollark: Yay for Google's reliable products!
gollark: Also adblocking everywhere (except the oh-so-few sites satisfying my acceptable ads criteria), so I wouldn't notice if targeted ad networks did start serving relevant-to-my-speech ads.
gollark: My laptop, which I think has a mike, runs Linux, and my phone runs Lineage without Google services.
gollark: I generally have about two devices with microphones around, but I control the software on them more than usual, so that's okay.
gollark: No. I mean Motorola's RAZR thing but it's a normally sized one which folds out to twice as tall.
