Terra 1949 - Narnia 2555. Il ciclo di Narnia è arrivato alla sua conclusione e tutti i personaggi dei sei romanzi precedenti vengono alla ribalta per salutare, dall'aquila Alidifuoco all'unicorno Diamante. Ma i veri eroi di questo "gran finale" sono Tirian, ultimo discendente dei re di Narnia, Jill ed Eustachio, che devono smascherare un assurdo impostore. Le forze del bene e del male si preparano alla battaglia decisiva, ma alla fine è al "cuore delle cose" che tutti dovranno guardare.

Como expressar de maneira profunda um sentimento frequentemente tratado de forma tão rasa? Para o célebre escritor C.S. Lewis, o amor pode ser comunicado de quatro maneiras: Afeição, a forma mais básica de amar; Amizade, considerada a mais rara; Eros, o amor apaixonado; e Caridade, o maior e menos egoísta deles. Em Os quatro amores, um de seus livros mais influentes, Lewis contempla a essência desse sentimento e avalia como cada tipo se ajusta aos demais.

Terra 1942 - Narnia 2306. "C'era un ragazzo che si chiamava Eustachio Clarence Scrubb, e se lo meritava." E oltre a ritrovarsi questo nome, Eustachio, a differenza dei suoi cugini Edmund e Lucy, non è mai stato a Narnia. Perciò non poteva immaginare che guardando il quadro di un mare in tempesta, ci sarebbero finiti dentro! Per fortuna il principe Caspian li salverà e li porterà con sé a bordo del dorato Veliero dell'alba, in un lungo viaggio per arrivare alla Fine del Mondo.

Terra 1942 - Narnia 2356. Un altro tuffo nello strabiliante mondo di Narnia, popolato da centauri, gnomi e giganti gentili. Sarà Aslan, il Grande Leone, a trasportare fin là Eustachio Scrubb e Jill Pole e ad assegnare loro un singolare compagno: Pozzanghera, creatura delle paludi. Compito dei tre eroi improvvisati sarà quello di liberare il principe Rilian, figlio di re Caspian, rapito da una strega malefica. E non occorre dire che un'impresa del genere comporterà incredibili peripezie.

C.S. Lewis dedicated The Screwtape Letters to his good friend J.R.R. Tolkien. In the Christian classic, he tells the story through a series of letter written by the demon Screwtape. It is considered one of Lewis' greatest works.

For many years an atheist, C. S. Lewis vividly describes the spiritual quest that convinced him of the truth and reality of Christianity, in his famous autobiography. "In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God...perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England." Thus Lewis describes memorably the crisis of his conversion. Surprised by Joy reveals both that crisis and its momentous conclusion that would determine the shape of Lewis' entire life.

C.S. Lewis's dazzling allegory about heaven and hell - and the chasm fixed between them - is one of his most brilliantly imaginative tales, as he takes issue with the ideas in William Blake's ‘The Marriage of Heaven and Hell'. In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon and embarks on an incredible voyage through Heaven and Hell. He meets a host of supernatural beings far removed from his expectations.

Desperate to escape a harsh and narrow regime, two runaways unwittingly flee headlong into the centre of a terrible battle.

Considerada uma das obras mais importantes de George MacDonald, Phantastes narra a história do jovem Anodos e suas aventuras fantásticas no Reino das Fadas.

Durch einen Kleiderschrank betreten Lucy, Peter, Susan und Edmund ein tief verschneites zauberhaftes Land.

"Stop it!" cried Eustace. "It's some silly trick you are playing! Ow!" A great cold salt splash had broken right out of the frame and they were breathless from the smack of it, as well as being wet through.

The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of fantasy novels by the English novelist, essayist, journalist, and critic C. S. Lewis. Set in the fictional realm of Narnia, the series takes place in a fantasy world of magic, myth, and talking animals. It deals with the adventures of various children who play a part in the unfolding history of Narnia. The books cover the entire history of Narnia, from its creation in The Magician's Nephew to its eventual destruction in The Last Battle.

For C. S. Lewis, reason and logic are the sensible way to approach faith and ethics. Much of the 20th century's ills are caused by ill-founded beliefs and opinions. Lewis' original approach remains as vital today as ever. He is able to take the most convoluted subject, turn it side on and shed bright illumination on it. To be able to see along things rather than at them - just like a beam of sunlight that invades the darkness of a toolshed - is, to Lewis, the way to understanding.

The Magician's Nephew is the sixth of the seven-book The Chronicles of Narnia series. This entry into the allegorical series tells the story of the creation of the world of Narnia by the lion Aslan. The events in the story take place 1000 years before The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
