He was an ATHEIST who became the BEST-SELLING Christian author in history.
He was an intellectual prig who was transformed into a man who had a mind and heart awake to holiness. He had no posterity, but few men in history have been so deeply loved by children. He was but a mirror reflecting another Face.
He was an Oxford Don and a Cambridge Professor. He was an expert in Medieval and Renaissance English who gripped the imagination of millions through his wartime broadcasts of Christian truth for the BBC—broadcasts that later became his famous book, Mere Christianity.
He was C. S. Lewis, a name synonymous with legendary kindness, intellectual rigour, a love of nature and perhaps his greatest creation, Aslan and the land of Narnia.
In A Shiver of Wonder, learn how his writings still compel countless readers to shiver with wonder at the great imagination and depth of understanding he possessed.
Controversial genius that he was, his life is a beacon for all who struggle with doubt and faith in Christ.
Available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
