	It is close, but for sheer breadth I like "The Book of the New
Sun" better. They are both absolutely amazing works.

	While I normally do not make resonses of 'I agree' (I mean what
is the point?), I can not resist. "Fifth Head" is one of the great books
of SF, and I can do no better than quote Anatomy of Wonder:

	"These summaries cannot touch the complexity, meaning
	and sheer beauty of these excellently written stories."
