I would recommend you check out his best stuff first, which would be Book of the New Sun. And if the first book doesn't grab you, then you know his stuff isn't for you.

I mean, isn't Severian like 15 years old? And yeah he lives in some kind of medieval environment. He lost his virginity to clone prostitutes iirc.

I previously read BOTNS and then went into Long Sun and I don't think I missed too much. I reread BOTNS last year and liked it more and now finishing Urth which is also good but not as good as BOTNS. There is a lot of closure with certain strands but there's less of Severian's gems of wisdom and the first half is more cliffhangery like a dan brown book. The second half (so far) has been more enjoyable.
