  Bobby Rooster often watched his favorite superheroes on T.V. He liked to watch Superman, Batman, and Spiderman. But his favorite superhero was Green Lantern. He always admired the powerful ring that John wore. Here he was again watching his favorite episode of Superman and enjoying himself. ‘Oh, if I were a superhero’ he pondered. ‘I would help everyone and ensure that the town of Chickenville was 99.9% safe.’ The constant thoughts rang through his mind. He knew if he were given such an opportunity it would be his best wish come true. 
  He then looked at the time and realized it was geared toward 11:00 a.m. It was a Tuesday. Bobby Rooster somewhat liked Tuesdays because he had no work, but he often just did fun activities. Sometimes he went to the park, other times the movies, and sometimes he went and visited Mama. Today, he wondered what he should do seeing it was not yet twelve in the afternoon. He decided to go for a quick walk around the block. His apartment was not that far from the park. At the park, he could do fun activities but his best friend Stuart the rabbit was still out of town, so he decided against going to the park today. But he changed his mind a few moments later.

  C.S. Lewis For Beginners is a thorough examination of C. S. Lewis, the greatest Christian apologist of the twentieth century, throughout his career as an author and as a professor at Oxford University. A Christian apologist defends Christianity as a consistent and coherent worldview that squares with human reason, history, and desire. It offers answers to every facet of our lives on earth as well as answers to our questions about what happens after we die. What makes C.S. Lewis unique as an apologist is the way he balanced so perfectly reason and imagination, logic and intuition, and head and heart. In addition to writing such non-fiction apologetics books as Mere Christianity, The Problem of Pain, and Miracles, he wrote eleven novels: the seven Chronicles of Narnia, a trilogy of science-fiction adventures, and a haunting retelling of an old myth set in the ancient world. All eleven tell wonderful, captivating stories that stand on their own as fiction but that also support and bring to life the kinds of apologetical arguments he makes in his non-fiction. He also wrote two utterly unique works of fiction, The Screwtape Letters and The Great Divorce, that offer a fresh, highly original take on sin and temptation, angels and devils, and heaven and hell. And that’s not all. Lewis the apologist and novelist had a day job. He was a celebrated English professor at Oxford, and then Cambridge, University who wrote works of literary criticism that are still famous today. C.S. Lewis For Beginners takes the reader through the wardrobe of his complete catalog of writing.

  The Machine Stops is a dystopian science fiction novel from 1909. A universal reaction to this story seems to be one of surprise, since some of the forecasts of the future seem to be eerily accurate. This is a thoroughly thought-provoking book, and well worth a listen.
