I would definitely start with <i>War in Heaven</i>, which does
indeed seem to have influenced Powers and Blaylock. The two best of
his novels are, in my opinion, <i>Descent into Hell</i> and <i>All
Hallows Eve</i>, but they are much less accessible than <i>War</i>.<br>
<br>
Williams' poetry is worth a look, but many people find it
impenetrable. It's certainly old-fashioned.<br>

Williams? From a brief look online, he seems to have some
similarities to MacDonald, and I thought there was a good chance
some of you Wolfeans (?) would have some input. Any suggestions
for a novel of his to start with?<br>
