The last time I read Lest Darkness Fall (in 2010), I noted that it may have been a pretty good effort for 1939, but it seems half-baked and incredible by now. It's hard to believe that this guy even managed to survive in 535 AD. It doesn't even finish well, just peters out.
I've read To Bring the Light only once, in 2007, and noted that it's less ambitious but better written than Lest Darkness Fall.
I still don't feel the urge to read either of them again, but I've kept the book, just in case.
