Recently found the Space Trilogy of C.S. Lewis at a yard sale.

People have been telling me to buy it for a while. I know his Narnia books are more well known but how does this trilogy compare? Cant wait to read it because I love the idea of him writing sci-fi

Ever read The Screwtape Letters? Mostly passed over for some reason or other...

To this day (nearly 3 decades after I read them), I vividly recall Screwtape's letter on the "most effective" temptation. The one where he explains the best way to drag down a soul was to get them to focus on all the little things than make one unhappy: "Why can't I get a proper piece of toast," "all i want is... ," "is it so much to to ask that... ." And then allowing those minor complaints to fester and eat away at a person while they blame their family, friends, neighbors, and ultimately God for their unhappiness.

I've really got to read that again, it's a book that leaves an impression.

Yes. Read it as a kid because my mother made me but I enjoyed it. Need to do a reread. Found Mere Christianity at a yard sale today.
