I've read Knight Moves, and also Norstrilia, although it's been quite a
while for the latter. I'll have to go back and read some of Cordwainer
Smith over again.

I found it rewarding.  There's a lot in Smith that I didn't get the
first time.  Well, virtually everything.

 
I've read the Dickson.   I'll have to check out the Smith, if I can
find it.

Mine is on the Kindle which I see is now $12 on Amazon (Australia). I
was surprised to read ridiculous prices for paperbacks there in the
hundreds with the lowest being over $60 and used books worth just as
much and sometimes more.
Anyway, I gave it three stars back in 2022 with the first half just
brilliant.
