I received this CD set from my sister for Christmas, and having just recently listened to the WONDERFUL Chronicles of Narnia Audio Theatre productions by the Focus on the Family Radio Theatre company (PLEASE GET THEM - THEY ARE INCREDIBLE!), I was glad to get this CD set...although at about 9 CD's in length (and then seeing that it was abridged) I thought "Wow, that must be a long book".
I wondered if it would be dry and stiff, yet Jacob's obvious VERY THOROUGH research (even quoting various books and authors that influenced Lewis so you can see what Lewis was referring too) moved along well, without being boring, or putting me to sleep.
Matter of fact, I listened to them often after pulling some serious overtime and even though I have an hour drive home, this CD set kept me engrossed the entire time.
If you like Lewis, or want to know more about this man and his life, or if you just like a true and detailed account of how God can reach, save, and use us, His creations, then this CD set is well worth the purchase. |
