About C. S. Lewis

It is a lofty goal, but many would be pleased if the work they accomplished would last well after their death, and be lauded with posthumous praise. Such is what happened to British author Clive Staples Lewis. He was born on November 29, 1898 and passed on November 22, 1963...... just prior to his 65th birthday. It was 2013 on the 50th Anniversary of Lewis' death, that he was honored by being given a memorial in Poet's Corner in West minister Abbey.

Lewis wore many professional hats......that of novelist, poet, academic, medievalist, literary critic, essayist, lay theologian, broadcaster, lecturer, and Christian apologist. His best known work is The Chronicles of Narnia, The Screwtape Letters, and The Space Trilogy. He is the author of more than 30 books, translated into over 30 languages. As we are all aware, The Chronicles of Narnia had tremendous sales numbers and have been made popular on stage, TV, radio, and cinema.

Lewis married American author, Joy Davidman, in 1956, but sadly, she passed away only four years later from cancer at only 45 years old. Lewis then died in 1963 of renal failure.

With a Queen slain and King Caspian's son Prince Rinian lost for over a decade, Aslan brings Eustace and Jill to Narnia, where, with intense, but funny super-pessimistic Puddlegum, they have to face the adverse weather, hazardous terrain and unknown dwellers of the little known (in the book series)......more

Goodreads review by Deborah on September 05, 2015

Ah, the strange joys of Narnia! How is a middle-aged feminist nonbeliever supposed to feel about this contradictory volume? Pro: Jill Pole is a strong, active, fun, funny, vigorous girl that any reader, male or female, will be happy to have as a protagonist. Con: Jill's old enough to be active, but y......more

One of the best. Puddleglum is, perhaps, my favorite Narnian character of all time.......more

Goodreads review by Doug on December 28, 2020

One of my other favorite Narnia books. I honestly love all of these books so much, with the exception of Prince Caspian, so it's really hard for me to truly rank the Narnia novels. Lewis' The Silver Chair, the fourth published book in the series (and the way in which I believe the series should be re......more
