The second installment of C.S. Lewis’s Space Trilogy is lyrical, profound, and full of wonder

When Dr. Elwin Ransom is sent to the planet Perelandra (Venus), he arrives in a world of unspoiled beauty and innocence.

But peace is shattered when a familiar evil invades this Eden-like paradise—determined to corrupt it from within. As Ransom confronts temptation, sin, and spiritual warfare on a cosmic scale, he must fight not only for the fate of a planet but for the very nature of goodness itself.

Perelandra is C.S. Lewis’s powerful meditation on temptation and redemption, wrapped in a dazzling work of science fiction.
