Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold from Harvest Books Price: $10.50 Customer Review: I first picked this book up as a child. My mom had read it in a course on C. S. Lewis in college, and remembered it as good, although she told me it was very confusing. Now, years later, after having read this fine novel a number of times, I would describe it not so much confusing as so... |

Mere Christianity from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $8.21 Customer Review: After reading several books on a similar topic that did nothing but confuse me, I was glad that I came upon C.S. Lewis's work. All of the other books about the existence of God are way off in their own world, and discourage anyone who feels lost in their ideas about God. This book really explained... |

The Great Divorce from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $9.95 Customer Review: As Lewis explains in his preface, The Great Divorce is a response to the attitude of William Blake, among others, that someday there will be an ideal union of the secular and divine, or Heaven and Hell. Unable to see how this could ever be, Lewis wrote The Great Divorce to explore the issue further.... |

Surprised by Joy: The Shape of My Early Life from Harvest Books Price: $9.75 Customer Review: "Surprised by Joy" is C.S. Lewis' auto-biographical book about the early, formational years of his life, which began with a vaguely religious upbringing, led into devout Atheism, and ended in Christ's drawing Lewis home. This book is excellent as auto-biographies (Christian or non-Christian) go as... |

The Four Loves from Harvest Books Price: $9.00 Customer Review:  As other reviewers have stated, C.S. Lewis takes a look at the four Greek words for love (storge, affection; philia, friendship; eros, romantic love; agape, charity). In addition, he defines some terms such as "Gift-Love", "Need-Love", "Appriciation-Love" and uses these in describing various... |

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Full-Color Collector's Edition) from HarperTrophy Price: $8.09 Customer Review: A long time ago, four children found a magical world beyond (what they thought was) an ordinary wardrobe. This magical world led them to many adventures in a magical place called Narnia. I read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in less than three hours because it was so interesting and... |

The Complete C.S. Lewis Signature Classics from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $32.97 Customer Review: Next to my Bible, my copy of the Catechism, my copy of the Didache, and some other writings from the early church, this is the most important book that I own. C.S. Lewis is one of the English speaking world's greatest treasures, and his work is a contribution to all of humanity. That might sound... |

The Problem of Pain from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $8.96 Customer Review: Is pain God's megaphone? Lewis ably examines the thorny subjects of pain and suffering in this book. The brief work is at once philosophical, logical, and semi-theological, even though Clive points out in his preface that he is no theologian (We can thank God for that!). Lewis seeks to answer... |

A Grief Observed from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $8.96 Customer Review: CS Lewis began writing this journal one month after his wife died of cancer. He was distraught, shocked, and confused, especially about the meaning of life. The journal rambles from one throught to another, reflecting his daze and despair. As a widow, I can identify with his varied reactions to... |

CS Lewis Signature Classics (Boxed Set) from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $40.13 Customer Review: This is an excellent collection of works by C. S. Lewis. It served as my introduction to Lewis's writings. I had never read anything by him before and was only familiar with his name and the title of one or two of his books. I was awed for the most part by his insight into Christianity and his... |

The Abolition of Man from Harper SanFrancisco Price: $8.06 Customer Review: A timely and prophetic defense of the authority of moral absolutes. (Prophetic not in the sense of foreseeing the future -- though a little of that too -- but of boldly speaking unpopular truths to a culture that sorely needs to hear them.) Just a few months ago Francis Fukuyama actually used the... |

The Chronicles of Narnia (Chronicles of Narnia Radio Theatre) from Focus on the Family Publishing Price: $50.38 Customer Review:  My husband and I have been enjoying this item (the unabridged version) however I had been hoping to find a storytelling version with more true-to-the-book narration so that when the kids are older they can read-along. Sometimes the actors' take on the dialogue does not convey the purpose or feeling... |

A Year with C. S. Lewis : Daily Readings from His Classic Works from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $13.57 Customer Review: Offering some real substance in an erudite but humble and humorous style, Lewis stands out from the plethora of dogmatic religious fluff we read. The review by FaithfulReader.com from New York is the best I've read. To emphasize several points: 1. By cutting and pasting from several C. S. Lewis... |

Reflections on the Psalms (Harvest Book) from Harvest Books Price: $9.60 Customer Review: The first time I read this book, many years ago, I was bothered by what I took as Lewis' disrespectful approach to the OT. One chapter of the book is called "Cursings," and in it Lewis forthrightly notes his initial impression that "the Jews are much more vindictive and vitriolic than the Pagans."... |

The Weight of Glory from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $8.21 Customer Review: I have to admit that the first time I read Weight of Glory was before I had read any of Lewis' other works. Since then I have had a chance to read many of his other works, both fiction and non-fiction. I can say with certainty that having read Weight of Glory helped immensely with all of his other... |

God in the Dock: Essays on Theology and Ethics from Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company Price: $10.88 Customer Review: Few authors become more relevant as time passes. Lewis, who died in 1963, is more relevant now than ever before. This collection of 38 essays and letters is not only enjoyable to read over and over since Lewis is a master at prose and image, it is food for your mind and soul, helping us to see... |

Miracles from HarperSanFrancisco Price: $8.96 Customer Review: According to C. S. Lewis, this book is intended as a preliminary to historical inquiry. It does not, therefore, examine the historical evidence for Christian miracles, but is intended to put readers in a position to do so. Lewis states: "It is no use going to the texts until we have some idea about... |

The Dark Tower and Other Stories from Harvest Books Price: $9.00 Customer Review: 'm not going into the question whether Jack Lewis wrote The Dark Tower or not. Other reviews have already commented on that. I personally agree that much of the posthumous Lewis canon, and just about everything that has come from the hands of Walter Hooper, is very highly suspect. Given the nature... |

Lewis' famous Narnia Chronicles, "The Magician's Nephew" is the story of Narnia's creation in the guise of an adventure shared by two children, Digory and Polly. Though among the last Narnia books published, chronologically "Nephew" is the first of the Narnia stories. That doesn't... |

For each of these topics, and for many others, Lewis uses a very straightforward technique, and explains things how he perceives them to be. With prayer, however, Lewis takes... |
