Talk:The Sword of the Lictor

Importance
Without reading the book I have retained the "Mid" importance classification assigned to the first two volumes of The Book of the New Sun. All four volumes won major awards as the year's Best Novel.

At the same time, Shadow and Claw should be deleted. That is a stub dedicated to the first two volumes bound as one.

There is no article for the third, fourth volume, or third and fourth bound as one, Sword and Citadel (Orb Books, 1994). --P64 (talk) 19:33, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Release date
The Wikipedia page lists the release year as 1982, but the first edition in hardcover actually came out in 1981 (published by Timescape / Simon and Schuster). You can find that edition on online antiquaries and the internet archive has a scan of this edition, confirming the date as 1981. So... why is it listed on Wikipedia as 1982? Can we change that?
