Book Reviews of The Complete C. S. Lewis Signature Classics
Book Review: A Must Read
Summary: 5 Stars
To have in one place the works of one of the greatest minds of the Twentieth Century is to have a treasure in ones hands. The logic of Mere Christianity is so close that it leave little wiggle room for the deepest of intellects. The satire of Screwtape Letters is hilarious but pointed and so true to life. Miracles is another apologetic as well as the Great Divorce. One needs this volume at hand and needs to read its content from cover to cover to even start to say that they are an educated person. For me Lewis is one of the greatest writers of all time, and a theologian without all the trappings of obscurantism. Enjoy the exercise of mind and heart in reading these classics.
Book Review: Excellent choice for anyone searching for a great read, or to explore Christianity
Summary: 5 Stars
As a freshman in college, the concept of religion can be a very distant one. A man who is a leader of a spiritual organization on campus highly recommended CS Lewis, beyond the Chronicles of Narnia, and finally I decided I would see what the interest was about. I cannot believe I waited so long to experience such a fantastic author and truly wonderful books. If you are a life-long Christian, someone open to the concept of religion and looking to explore, or just someone who wants several great stories to read, this collection is unbeatable. Over 750 pages and seven stories that will challenge the reader, both spiritually and intellectually. I highly, highly recommend this book.Book Review: Good Anthology
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent anthology if you enjoy C. S. Lewis or if you are new to Lewis. It is a great price with several of Lewis' best books (The Screwtape Letters, Mere Christianity, and The Great Divorce). C. S. Lewis is able to present important theology in an easy to read and understand format. Lewis is able to point out some common sins that pull us away from God - by our own choice. In addition, he has a biting satirical voice in the Screwtape letters. C. S. Lewis is an excellent writer.
This is not a small book but I find the book a great bedside companion. I have given two copies to friends so I recommend this to others.
Book Review: C.S. Lewis creatively communicates God's glory in Jesus Christ
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a great investment. Not only does it help my theological understanding of what Jesus Christ has accomplished for us on the cross, but C.S. Lewis' writings expands my imagination and love for God's creativity! What a glorious picture of the Lord's love for us through the gospel of Jesus Christ. I recommend this book to anyone looking for answers about God and wanting to grow in their knowledge of Him. Although the book is thick, it's easy to read in small chunks. Don't let it be intimidating. It has become a restful read for my soul, yet also thought-provoking.Book Review: Excellent reading for mind and soul
Summary: 5 Stars
CS Lewis is consistantly interesting and insightful. His works are straight forward and avoid belabored, technical theology. Excellent food for thought for the Christian. Excellent food for thought for the non-Christian. If you have even a mild interest in Christian thought, this anthology is a great starting point. The price is unbeatable because even if you end up disliking the theology, The Screwtape Letters and The Great Divorce are entertaining enough on their own and worth nearly the price of the anthology!
