   Should perhaps have added that I don't recommend them all, but I did love   
   All Hallows' Eve (better when reread than the first time) and Descent Into   
   Hell, and I give The Greater Trumps to my friends who are into Tarot. Well,   
   some of them. I know far too many people into Tarot....

   Who wrote "Voyage to Arcturus" ? I used to have that and another by the same   
   author, "The Haunted Lady." Definitely in the Williams-Lewis (Perelandra)   
   corner of the reading room.   
      
   With, maybe, Jurgen. (But Cabell's from a rather pagan p.o.v. -- which is   
   refreshing.) And de la Mare's The Three Mulla-Mulgars, though I despair of   
   finding another copy with the gorgeous illustrations of the first edition my   
   father owned.
