C. S. Lewis's fiction is rich with reflections on the afterlife.
For many, reading his books helps in forming a more vivid
understanding of Heaven and Hell. In this book, Lewis scholar Wayne
Martindale uses some of Lewis's best-loved fiction as an
imaginative complement to his discussion on eternity.
Those who know Lewis's work will enjoy Martindale's thorough
examination of the powerful images of Heaven and Hell found in
Lewis's fiction, and all readers can appreciate Martindale's
scholarly yet accessible tone. Read this book, and you will see
afresh the wonder of what lies beyond the Shadowlands.
"Beyond the Shadowlands does much more than illuminate C. S.
Lewis. It illuminates the great mystery of the nature of eternal
life. This book makes the Christian reader yearn for what lies
ahead." --Gene Edward Veith, Cultural Editor, World magazine
"Dr. Wayne Martindale has done us all a great favor in gathering
up and putting into one volume what C. S. Lewis has written about
Heaven and the afterlife. The Lord has a way of shining the light
of Heaven down on the works of Lewis, and in the process delivering
us moderns from secular-minded myths. Many who read Beyond the
Shadowlands may find not only Heaven and a longing for the eternal
birthed in them, but missing parts of themselves set in as well: a
remythologized and ennobled self more fully participating in an
eternal kingdom." --Leanne Payne, author, founder, Pastoral Care
Ministry School
"This is no mere book. It is a window to the next world. You
will see things here that few have seen. Wayne Martindale has
produced a work of great love and illumination like nothing else
you'll read this year." --Thomas L. Martin, author of Poiesis and
Possible Worlds, editor of Reading the Classics with C. S.
Lewis
