From R. Scott Bakker's The Judging Eye:
Mimara is already charging. Squirrel is out, a glittering arc that catches the abomination below the elbow. The steel cuts true. Bone cracks. Severed muscle snaps into knows beneath the hide. But only one of the limb's three spokes is undone. (p. 377)
But squirrels are more fierce and yet more cuddly as well

Illusions fall like the husk of a fruit, one after another, and the fruit is experience. - Narrator, Sylvie

I love Wolfe's odd translations (and outright mistranslations).

I think some of that was intentional, knowing him

Oh, yes. His incorrect translations are done on purpose (in Latro, at least).
