Book Review: Beyond the Shadowlands by Wayne Martindale

Beyond the Shadowlands

Pages: 237
Pub­lisher: Zon­der­van
Year: 2009
Author: Wayne Martindale

I’ve always been a fan of C.S. Lewis’ writ­ing, but I’ve never read any­thing about Lewis’ views until now. Admit­tedly, I was at some what of a dis­ad­van­tage with this book, as three of the most quoted books, Lewis’ Space Tril­ogy (Out of the Silent Planet, Pere­landa, That Hideous Strength), are ones that I haven’t read (though I do plan on chang­ing that in the near future).
