I think it's Lewis' best book of adult fiction, better than Til We Have Faces, which (like some of Kipling's later work) is (in my opinion) unnecessarily obscure. I even think The Great Divorce is better than That Hideous Strength, but that's a near-run thing.
Of course the Narnia series remains my favorite . . .
