Product Description:
The second book in C. S. Lewis's acclaimed Space Trilogy, which also includes Out of the Silent Planet and That Hideous Strength, Perelandra continues the adventures of the extraordinary Dr. Ransom. Pitted against the most destructive of human weaknesses, temptation, the great man must battle evil on a new planet -- Perelandra -- when it is invaded by a dark force. Will Perelandra succumb to this malevolent being, who strives to create a new world order and who must destroy an old and beautiful civilization to do so? Or will it throw off the yoke of corruption and achieve a spiritual perfection as yet unknown to man? The outcome of Dr. Ransom's mighty struggle alone will determine the fate of this peace-loving planet.

This is a journey to Venus science fiction fantasy; the second in a space trilogy. Ransom (Godly) is a scientist sent to Venus (presumably by an angel) for reasons he did not know. He meets an innocent human-like woman upon arriving. She is searching for her King, who until Ransom, were the only people on Venus except for the myriad of unusual interactive animals. Ransom follows her as she makes her way across the floating islands of a water laden planet. As one progresses you will recognize the parallels ... Read More

The trilogy as a whole is brilliant, but yet again, the middle child is the one most often forgot. However, do NOT skip this volume. While perhaps the most esoteric, the quality of prose is there, and the story is as gripping as anything else Lewis ever wrote.
