It's a long time since I read this, but I remember starting at the end of Carter's work and coming to the earlier stuff was disappointing - I thought this was the reading equivalent of someone telling you all about their dreams.
The last two, though - Nights at the Circus and Wise Children, they're dazzlingly brilliant.
