items My favorite books by or about the literary fellowship known as The Inklings: C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Owen Barfield, Charles Williams, Hugo Dyson, Adam Fox, Warren Lewis, and others who popped in and out from time to time.
The first of Tolkien’s famous trilogy. One of my favorite parts is when the hobbits find refuge in the house of Tom Bombadil.
The Fellowship of the Ring book by J.R.R. Tolkien
The second of the famous trilogy. Treebeard is one of my favorite characters. How wonderful it would be if Ents roamed the world.

Arguably Lewis’s most sophisticated piece of fiction and one of my favorites. It’s a retelling of the myth of Psyche.
Till We Have Faces book by C.S. Lewis - ThriftBooks
This is one of the most interesting abs important pieces of scholarship in Lewis studies. Dr. Ward has discovered the whole underlying theme (or key) to the Narnia books—his thesis is logical and his evidence is substantive and undeniable.
Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the... book by Michael Ward
