The Time Quartet, at least, are mostly kids books - I don't know whether you'd be willing to drag through them in English, but aside from a couple concepts I've already outlined (tessering, kything, echtheroi - all of which are absolutely littered with greek when they're explained, you can tell that L'Engle took greek in school,) they're not terribly long or complicated. The vocabulary might be a little old, though.
(Also, sorry, I don't have a judge of how much you'd like to read whole books in english yet - I mean, I know you speak write it pretty well, and hang out in the sporkings, so I think you'd probably do okay if you could find them and wanted to give it a go. Anyway, the shipping problem is worrisome.)
