Raise a Glass to Perelandra by C.S. Lewis (Space Trilogy #2)
In this episode a long time coming, Eric and Hunter get lost in the unfixed land of Perelandra. The quote about the length of books is attributed to Abbè Terrasson in Kant's Critique of Pure Reason [https://www.gutenberg.org/files/4280/4280-h/4280-h.htm]: "Abbé Terrasson remarks with great justice that, if we estimate the size of a work, not from the number of its pages, but from the time which we require to make ourselves master of it, it may be said of many a book—that it would be much shorter, if it were not so short."
