I've read two of them - one being "The Worm Ouroboros" twice.

These are great, ornate, difficult, challenging fantasy novels.

"The Worm Ourorboros" is one of the most delicious fantasy novels I've ever read, but the other 3 novels are very, very challenging. You may wish to give only that one a try.

They were all released as part of the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series. The editor of the series was Lin Carter, a man who introduced some of the most incredible fantasy works to the general public and to lovers of fantasy way back in the late 1960s.
My paper copy of the Worm Ouroboros is the Ballantine version bought many, many years ago. It's an older style (well, duh written in 1922), but I didn't find it particularly difficult, just different. I have Mistress of Mistresses, but not the other two.
