Many years ago, I picked up The Compleat Enchanter thanks to this group.
I enjoyed it so much that I picked up The Complete Compleat Enchanter,
which I enjoyed enough to pick up two more volumes co-authored by de
Camp and Stasheff. They were also good - not as good as the de Camp &
Pratt, but still good.
