non-Christian allusion in most/all of Wolfe's major work, and often it
is more obvious than the Christian allusions.
But I hold that Wolfe's major method is to create a non-Christian
reality and embed it into a larger reality that is Christian -- as it
were, other realities created by the One God. This is probably
clearest in the Wizard/Knight duo, where the Aesir-analogues are
subservient to the angels, i.e., Michael, who are in turn subservient
to the Most High God, i.e., the Christian God.
