C.s. Lewis - the Space Trilogy - Three Books in One

INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING 3 STORIES: OUT OF THE SILENT PLANET: Ransom is abducted by a megalomaniacal physicist and his accomplice and taken via spaceship to the red planet of Malacandra. The men plan to use Ransom as a human sacrifice, but he escapes and must fight for his life and the chance to return home while exploring a world that is enchanting in its difference from Earth and startling in its similarity. PERELANDRA: Perelandra continues the adventures of Dr. Ransom in an extraordinary tale. Ransom is fighting against the most destructive of human weaknesses, temptation, when he must battle evil on a new planet - Perelandra - after it is invaded by a dark force that strives to create a new world order on the peace loving planet. THAT HIDEOUS STRENGTH: In the concluding book of trilogy, the dark forces that were repulsed in previous books are poised to invade Earth, while a rumor circulates that the ancient wizard Merlin is returning and offering tremendous power to those who can find and control him. The heroic Dr. Ransom is trying to hand these threats-while battling a sinister technocratic organization-by applying age-old wisdom to a new universe dominated by science. These groups struggle to a climactic resolution that brings The Space Trilogy to a magnificent crashing close.
