Search - The Complete Compleat Enchanter

It was a difficult and ultimately boring read. Far too much psychoanalysis as a plot device (which is entirely understandable because the main character and some minor characters are all "classically trained" psychologists from the early nineteen hundreds). These books were written in the 1940s and '50s and it very definitely shows. This was not a classic book that demands to be re-read anytime soon, if ever.

Some stories better then others, but generally a lot of fun. This is a collection of short stories orginally printed in magazines in the 40s and 50s and then in a couple of collections. The "hero" is a young psychologist who uses symbolic logic to travel through epic poems. Lots of wry humor, most emjoyable if you have some knowledge of the Ring Cycle, the Fairie Queen etc.
