Lewis Narrator: Geoffrey Howard Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 02-27-01 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2621 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Classic Publisher's Summary: Out of the Silent Planet is the first novel of the Cosmic Trilogy, considered to be C.S. Lewis' chief contribution to the science fiction genre. The trilogy concerns Dr. Ransom, a linguist, who, like Christ, was offered a ransom for mankind. The first two novels are planetary romances with elements of medieval mythology. Each planet is seen as having a tutelary spirit; those of the other planets are both good and accessible, while that of Earth is fallen, twisted, and not known directly by most humans. The story is powerfully imagined, and the effects of lesser gravity on Martian planet and animal life is vividly rendered. Critic Reviews: "A delightful fantasy." (New York Herald Tribune) "C.S. Lewis...is a master of fantasy." (Saturday Review)
