The groundbreaking Victorian-era fantasy from the Scottish literary master. โWithout question one of the cornerstones of the genre.โโBlack Gate
ย
George MacDonaldโs first major fiction work, in MacDonaldโs words โa sort of fairy tale for grown people,โย Phantastesย was published in 1858. This unusual fantasy, subtitled a โfaerie romance,โ is one of MacDonaldโs most mysterious and esoteric titles. The bookโs narrator, Anodos, enters Fairy Land through a mysterious old wooden secretary. From that beginning, he embarks on a dream-like series of encounters that follow the form of an epic quest, though the purpose and destination of his journey remain obscure and are never fully clarified.
ย
Sales ofย Phantastes proved a disappointment, until young atheist C.S. Lewis discoveredย it in 1916. Within a few hours he said he knew he โhad crossed a great frontier.โ MacDonaldโs unusual fantasy set Lewis on the road toward his eventual conversion to Christianity, and forever after he referred to MacDonald as his โmaster.โ In spite of its poor initial reception among Victorian readers, Lewisโs affection for it establishedย Phantastesย as one of MacDonaldโs most enduring and studied works in literary and academic circles. This new edition is one of six fantasy titles in The Cullen Collection that has not been edited or updated in any way and is reproduced exactly in its original text.

โIt can be exquisitely beautiful . . . from time to time I was caught by MacDonaldโs enchantment, by his underlying concept that we can build a land of Faerie in our minds, and travel there.โโTor.com
