    About this audiobook

    It is the story of Mr. Vane, an orphan and heir to a large house — a house in which he has a vision that leads him through a large old mirror into another world. In chronicling the five trips Mr. Vane makes to this other world, MacDonald hauntingly explores the ultimate mystery of evil.

Auden called him "one of the most remarkable writers of the nineteenth century."

      Narrator was Excellent! Story, not so much. The ending was a huge letdown. Lots of quotable bits about life death and suffering, but the ending set it back.

      This book launched a genre: fantasy. Yet it is strange...

      An earlier reviewer set the book was so so, and the narration was excellent. I say the book content was excellent, and the narration was abysmal. A stilted, inconsistent narration that didn't flow well made it very hard to get through the excellent content of the book itself.

      Wow! What a beautiful vision of life (eternal). Theology at its best. Modern rationality centered "serious academic theology" doesn't do it for me anymore.

      A beautiful tale of salvation, enchantingly written. Unfortunately the narrator's voice is too quiet at times to listen to it in a noisy place on the headphones.
