I read only The Death of Doctor Island of those two.

It's one of the best shorter forms ever. When Gene Wolfe is at his best, none comes close. In short, Nicholas alias Keneth is just a kid, Diane does not have the will to live, and Ignacio is very smart. The Island is their doctor, and the sea is sky is the sea. And it all make sense. Prose is beautiful. There is strong emotional impact, too.
