I thought the first book was pretty good but declined from there. And Lewis' "Space Trilogy", Perelandra, I could never get into despite the great title of the third Book, "That Hideous Strength."

"That Hideous Strength."

Do yourself a BIG FAVOR read it. It's as relevent today as it was when written.

Please do yourself a favor and read it again.

It is tremendous, though not the science fiction page turner that the first two were.

Give it another shot, but this time, think 'democrats'.

Perelandra was kind of slow going, but if you can stick it out, it is well worth the read!
