I suspected as much. I vaguely recall having tried and not having gotten far.
It was around 1965, as I was starting my Lewis/Chesterton/Tolkien affairs, and also much related fantasy literature (Eddison, Morris, such like archaic language users), on into the Ballentine Adult Fantasy series (at the Sign of the Unicorn) and lots of others I've completely forgotten, and hope to find the books again someday, wherever they are in my crypts. I plowed on, faithfully, but rarely looked back.
