Overview
Among the most popular and influential of George MacDonald’s fantasy novels, Phantastes follows the story of Anodos and his adventures in fairyland. Mythic creatures, objects, and danger await Anodos as he confronts tree-spirits and the shadow, searches for the spirit of the earth, and resides in the palace of the fairy queen. Though influential on many authors, Phantastes transformed C. S. Lewis. Lewis affirmed its power over him in a 1962 interview with The Christian Century, listing Phantastes first among the books that influenced him most.
