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]
