To call Lewis worse than Stapledon and Lindsay is saying quite a lot, as I find both nearly unreadable. Stapledon at least had enormous ambition and unprecedented scope, though his writing reads like a poorly written encyclopedia. I have nothing good to say about Lindsay.
Wells was great, though.. both readable and imaginative. I hesitate to mention him and Lewis in the same breath, as I find absolutely nothing redeeming about Lewis' writing either, unless you like your conservative Christian propaganda laid on extra thick.
