An outstanding and challenging series
There are few books that make you stop and take an accounting of who you are, what you're about and how you fit into time and the universe more than Mere Christianity. While it was originally a radio series (BBC) broadcast during WWII, it's approach is as applicable now as it was then or at any point in time. If you have any doubts, concerns or interests regarding the existance of God ...

A Grief Observed

134 reviews
C. S. Lewis

HarperOne, 1994

Raw and true
CS Lewis looks death into the face; he does not flinch and does not console himself with platitudes. He had lost the love of his life and his pain is palpable to the reader. This is a raw and honest book but it is not at all depressing: At the end of the book, Lewis begins to recover: his wish is simply that, on his own death bed, his lover will come back to him and give him the consolation of ...

Some comments on the reading orders of the Narnia novels.
For those older readers of Narnia, here are some of my own thoughts on which order to read the Chronicles. For those new to Narnia, you may be unaware that there are two orders of reading the series; one, chronologically by publication order, and the other by Narnia's chronologically progression. The first is is numbered as thus: THE LION, THE WITCH, & THE WARDOBE, PRINCE CASPIAN, VOYAGE OF THE ...

Orbis Books, 2004

Loved it!!
I love that this series, including "Bread and Wine:Readings for Lent and Easter," because it challeneges our complacent culture-dictated experience of Advent and Easter. This is not a feel-good book, it is a faith-building book. Be prepared to be shaken up and for God to meet you in a new way. I bought copies for my friends and family. Everyone loved it! The diversity of authors come ...

The Discarded Image

C.S. Lewis

Cambridge University Press, 1964

An excellent introduction to the medieval mind
C.S. Lewis is just such a pleasure to read. And this book is simply a joy. I am a PhD student in medieval history and have read an awful lot of books on the medieval mind and this is by far the best. There is a slight tendency in Lewis' writing to see philosophy as the sole motor of history--but this is to be expected from his generation and it doesn't detract from the picture he paints. The best ...

Scribner, 1996

A good compendium of Lewis' works
This collection of Lewis' essays is a good read. It's well-categorized and as such, makes for a good "bathroom book". You can open it randomly, read a bit on a given topic and set it aside. And it contains some of Lewis' best work and pithy sayings and profound wisdom. Lots of quotable quotes and also includes ideas that can be life changing if you let them hang around in your consciousness ...

The weight of glory

38 reviews
C. S Lewis

Unicorn Press, 1977

Great Reading
There is a jacket blurb on The Weight of Glory from John Updike, who comments on both the comfort and pleasure afforded by Lewis. Neither should be underestimated. This is great devotional writing but it is also great writing, writing that is typified by Lewis' ability to deal with the weightiest of matters with a light touch. It is a truism that our faith is reinforced whenever we see it ...

On the Incarnation: De Incarnatione Verbi Dei (Popular Patristics Series)

15 reviews
St. Athanasius

St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 1996

A great introductory work to the early church fathers.
First, the introduction by C. S. Lewis is alone worth the price of this short work. Lewis argues that these works by the early church fathers are far easier to read than the commentaries of the works of the fathers. He also argues that we need to read at least one out of three books out of our century. He doesn't use the phrase "chronological snobbery," but the argument is the same. We need to ...

Excellent Series
Out of the Silent Planet C.S. Lewis Scribner Paperback ISBN 0684823802 This is the first book in C.S. Lewis's amazing Space Trilogy. These books are far less known than Lewis's Narnia series or even his Mere Christianity or The Screwtape Letters, yet it is just as good as any of those writings and goes to show the versatility of Lewis as an author. This first book begins with our hero, ...

How it began, this gives you the background of how Narnia started
While this wasn't the first book written in the series it is officially the first book and tells you how Narnia began, how the lamp post in the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe got there in the first place and background on the witch as well. Digory (I agree with Polly, this IS a funny name!) and his neighbour Polly stumble into Digory's Uncle Andrew's study quite by accident one wet afternoon ...

Harpercollins, 1990

A good book that explains the Narnia Series!
The Land of Narnia is a good book that tells about C.S. Lewis' life and how he came to write the Chronicles of Narnia. This book tells who Aslan and the Witches are and tells what gave C.S. Lewis the idea for Reepicheep, the warrior mouse. This book contains summaries for the seven books as well. This is an excellent book to read if you have just finished reading the Chronicles of Narnia. ...

Mere Christianity

C. S. Lewis

Fount, 1997

Merely wonderful...
C.S. Lewis was a rare individual. One of the few non-clerics to be recognised as a theologian by the Anglican church, he put forth the case for Christianity in general in ways that many Christians beyond the Anglican world can accept, and a clear description for non-Christians of what Christian faith and practice should be. Indeed, Lewis says in his introduction that this text (or indeed, hardly ...

Excellent introduction to the works of cs lewis
This book gives an excellent, balanced introduction to the wealth of ideas found in C.S. Lewis' many works. It includes some complete works of differing genres, and many selections from an even wider range of his works including letters and essays. Many of the most quoted passages from a large number of works are included. A great book for anyone who knows a little of Lewis' works and wants to ...

My daughter loved it
In the first 24 hours since this book was purchased my daughter has insisted on having it read to her 7 times. No other book has had this affect. She wants to know what is holding up the next volume, and when is her dad going to get it for her.

English Literature in the Sixteenth Century: Excluding Drama (Oxford History of English Literature Series)

5 reviews
C. S. Lewis

Oxford University Press, USA, 1973

Through Drab to Gold
Commissioned as a volume in "The Oxford History of English Literature", "English Literature in the Sixteenth Century Excluding Drama", as it was originally titled, proved such tedium to write that Lewis took to referring to it by the acronym "OHEL". The sixteenth century ends as one of the great ages - arguably the greatest - of English literary genius, but it began dismally. Except in ...

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 1955

After reading this book, you just might glow!
I had to come down off of the mountain after reading this book! The spiritual high that it produced was nothing shy of immaculate. I was so impressed with this woman's perspective on the Christian life, especially coming from the Atheistic background that she did. One would not expect such enlightened 'Christian' thoughts from a woman who at one time, hated all things religious. This book ...

The Intellectual's Christian
If not one of the greatest Christian philosophers of the 20th century (perhaps of all time), C. S. Lewis was certainly among the most accessible to the lay reader not deeply conversant with theology or metaphysics. And as a professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge, and friend and confidant to T. S. Eliot, J.R.R. Tolkien, Dorothy Sayers and many other major literary ...
