   I only became aware of "The Well at the World's End" fairly recently (in   
   the last decade or so) but I think very highly of it.  Another book Lewis   
   cited as an influence on him was David Lindsay's "A Voyage to Arcturus"   
   which I discovered young (before discovering Lewis) and have read several   
   times over the years (though not in the last couple of decades).
