A Christian Classic, from the Grandfather of Modern Fantasy
Featuring a Preface by Malcolm Guite, President of the George MacDonald Society; an insightful introduction by MacDonald Scholar Kirstin Jeffrey Johnson; and illustrations by fantasy artist Gabrielle Ragusi
“Books are invitational portals to multidimensional realms,” writes Kirstin Jeffrey Johnson in the introduction to this volume, and none is more so than Lilith, by George MacDonald (1824-1905), the grandfather of modern fantasy fiction. He was revered by G.K. Chesterton and J.R.R. Tolkien in the last century, and by Andrew Peterson, author of The Wingfeather Saga, in our own—to name just a few of many. MacDonald was the single greatest influence on C.S. Lewis (author of the Chronicles of Narnia), who wrote "I have never concealed the fact that I regarded him as my master; indeed, I fancy I have never written a book in which I did not quote from him." Lilith, a visionary adventure and arguably the most original work of the Victorian era, was regarded by Lewis as one of MacDonald’s greatest masterpieces.
