Audio version of the early 90's award-winning short story by Ted Chiang. It's about an hour in total and really really good.

I liked it. Didn't care for the ending though.

Oh neat, I haven't read all of that. Thanks! The Merchant and the Alchemists Gate has been taken down though.

I like the story, and I like the reading too. Rashan Stone, the narrator, is very, very good at sounding smugly detached.
