"C.S. Lewis. . . is a master of fantasy." --Saturday Review

The first installation in the Cosmic Trilogy (or Ransom Trilogy), Out of the Silent Planet is a planetary romance with elements of medieval mythology, and introduces the linguist Dr. Ransom, who, like Christ, is at one point offered as a ransom for mankind.

The first two books in the trilogy are powerfully imagined. The effect of lesser gravity on Martian plant and animal life is rendered with great economy and vividness, as is Ransom's first sight of the water world of Venus, a rich exercise in perception. In a passage as purely evocative of a sense of alien wonder as anything in science fiction, Ransom's human eyes cannot at first make sense of the strangeness about him.
