I might not have thought so, but just reading the last part this week made me want to go back and revisit the first three. And then when I was pulling quotes from my review, I saw some cool bits that I'd forgotten about and really wanted to delve back into.
I can't wait until the Disney marathon (which I fully intend to catch up on) gets to Sword and the Stone. I always assumed that was a heavily Disneyfied adaptation of the original book, so I was surprised how similar White's version actually was (going by memory of the film anyway).
