This was the most compelling book in Lewis’ Space Trilogy. Though it continues the story of Dr. Ransom, it feels entirely unlike the first two books, taking place entirely on Earth, and being some odd combination of conspiracy-theory and fantasy. This is definitely worth reading though, even if you were, like me, somewhat let down by Perelandra.

The third and most complex novels in the space triology. Having followed the adventures of Dr. Ransom in the first two novels, Lewis confuses his readers by focusing the first 150 pages or so on Mark and Jane, a young couple who have recently moved to Bracton. The second part of the novel rewards the reader with the reapperance of Ransom and a host of trippy, fantastic events.
