I read all of FH's books, and tried a couple of those written since his passing, but I couldn't get past the inconsistencies which were introduced.

The first book definitely stands apart since it was heavily edited by John Campbell, and was pretty much directly copied from Lesley Blanch's _The Sabres of Paradise_ --- anyone who enjoyed the first book and is curious about the wellspring of it is encouraged to read that.
