This book consists of a series of thirty-one letters written by a senior demon, Screwtape, to his young demon nephew, Wormwood. Wormword has been charged with securing the damnation of a man's soul, but he does not yet know enough about humans to carry out his task successfully.
In his letters, Screwtape gives his nephew advice on the specific problems involved in this one particular case assigned to him, and while doing so he educates Wormwood more generally on a variety of human subjects. ... Read More

I often say that almost all of my theology comes from reading "The Narnia Suite," which I read for the first time at the age of eight, and more than a dozen times thereafter.

An excellent book which shows how the "other side" thinks. Great writing! One of my favorites!

I was hoping this version could replace my paperback copy; however, without the C.S. Lewis preface to the 1961 edition it is incomplete.

Like all Lewis' works, this book is full of insights into human life - into those aspects which are often too big and obvious for us to notice. These insights are given us directly from the enemy through the writings of a devil named Screwtape. He writes to his nephew (a novice tempter devil) about his nephew's "patient," a human struggling with faith, who is a representation of us. This book bettered my attitudes about people and life and faith by orders of magnitude! I recommend it to everyone!!
