Summary

Alister McGrath’s provocative and perceptive book DEEP MAGIC, DRAGONS AND TALKING MICE takes Lewis as the perfect conversation companion for the persistent meaning-of-life questions everyone asks.

Critics Review

This is a splendid book which reminds us of the whole body of thought revealed through Lewis’ writing. It may help us see in a new light some of the things we have already read. It may send us back to read again, or for the first time, some of the spiritual classics that other works of C S Lewis have become. McGrath’s claim that reading C S Lewis can change your life is no vain boast. Reading McGrath on Lewis could be a similarly momentous act in our journeys of life and faith. * The Methodist Recorder *
If McGrath’s purpose is to inspire his own readers to delve into Lewis’s writings, he certainly achieves that. Highly readable.’ * Reflections Magazine *
