The book that every Inklings reader needs is finally here! For those who love Lewis, Tolkien, & co. but don't know where to start with MacDonald, now is the time to discover the best works by the "Grandfather of the Inklings"—and all in the familiar company of your favourite authors, who have pointed out the way...
“A lovely, beautifully written introduction to the man who began the re-enchantment of the 20th century...”—John Hendrix, New York Times best selling illustrator and author of The Mythmakers: The Remarkable Fellowship of C.S. Lewis & J.R.R. Tolkien (A Graphic Novel)
Do you find the Inklings to be "reading heaven" but fear you've missed the bus with MacDonald? Are you at home in Hobbiton but a stranger to the Scottish Highlands? If this is your experience then help is finally at hand—whetheryour preference is fantasy, non-fiction, or "realistic" novels.
The Greats Endorsed is a brand new guide for beginners which brings George MacDonald out of the shadows, and makes him as easy to discover as his heirs. In the company of Chesterton and the Oxford Inklings, we learn first hand about the books they loved, and answer such questions as "what was Chesterton's favourite MacDonald novel?" "which MacDonald sermon was quoted by Uncle Screwtape?" and even "which MacDonald book did C. S. Lewis first read naked?"! All this and more is covered in David Jack's essential new companion to George MacDonald, which no follower of the Inklings should be without!
