Best C.S. Lewis Books

One of Lewis' best-known works, this book clearly outlines the logical arguments for Christianity in an intellectual rather than emotional manner.

A raw and moving account of Lewis' struggle with grief after the death of his wife. Unlike most of his other non-fiction, which tends to be more logical, this book includes the intensely emotional writing that clearly demonstrates the depth of grief and love.

A fascinating and imaginative look at Christianity from Satan's perspective. The book is full of wry humor that takes the reader off guard.

The second of the Chronicles of Narnia (the first being the Magician's Nephew) but the most well-known of the books, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is a rich allegorical tale that skillfully weaves the theme of good versus evil through a wonderfully evocative, magical world filled with brilliantly developed characters. It's a pleasure to read for children and adults alike.

Lewis' attempt to explain how a loving God could allow suffering, this book takes a very straightforward and honest look at pain, love, heaven, and God. This book proves that Lewis was not afraid to address very difficult topics.

It is one of C.S. Lewis's first works, and a great book to begin his career.
