The Worm Ouroboros by E. R. EddisonDescription: Much admired by C. S. Lewis and Tolkien (he was invited to the Oxford literary group run by Lewis, which also included JRR Tolkien), E. R. Eddison had an exceptionally fertile and original mind. Like Tolkien he invented a whole world, and peopled it with characters as powerful in personality as they were in their magical combat. When LOTR was published if reviewers felt able to compare it to any book, this was the one. Still in print and being read today.
