“That Hideous Strength” was a revelation for me. Out of C.S. Lewis’s Space Trilogy, this novel stands out as my favorite. Unlike “Perelandra,” which is heavily driven by its descriptions of setting, “That Hideous Strength” captivated me with its dynamic narrative, multiple points of view, and the intense build-up to the climax. Lewis masterfully balances the philosophical with the action, making the story compelling and thought-provoking. As I journeyed through this sci-fi trilogy, I found myself wishing there was more from Lewis on this subject. Five stars—I loved it.
