Tolkien Lord of the Ring , Charles Williams and many others. You can download MacDonald's works from the internet for free, of course, from many sites, but the format is not so good in some poor scanning leaves typos.

The Princess and the Goblin (Looking Glass Library)

And I like having the Kindle WhisperSync tech, whether on my Kindle or my Smartphone semi-Smartphone, I should clarify--or semi-Smart user , so when I switch between reading on my phone and Kindle I can easily find my place--all for 99 cents. I like the illustrations as well. We're so used to getting everything online "free" that we now balk at paying even 99 cents, but two decades ago I'd have never imagined having all of his writings in a tiny device on which I can keep notes, bookmarks, etc.

We take too much for granted. Spend the 99 cents; it's a bargain. MacDonald brings an honest, strong theology across subtly in his works. I didn't quite love this work as much as "North Wind" as there was more violence to it When you get done reading this, read "Peer Gynt" if you haven't done so already That being said, the characters and emotions are real, and the imagery incredibly poetic.

I do recommend this book--if you're giving it to a young person to read or reading it to them, just be aware that some of the content in the fighting scenes is a bit intense. Princess Irene is on an amazing quest to find herself, her family story and, in a sense, her spirituality Her friendship with Curdie is plainly going to be explored in further writings I will make it a point to read "The Princess and Curdie" next.

Reading George MacDonald will institute or strengthen a love of the beauty of the English language.

The Princess and the Goblin by George MacDonald - Audiobook

It includes numerous allusions to Christian themes, but not in an overly preachy way. Author, why do you always write about princesses? I have seen little princesses behave like children of thieves and lying beggars, and that is why they need to be told they are princesses. And that is why when I tell a story of this kind, I like to tell it about a princess. Then I can say better what I mean, because I can then give her every beautiful thing I want her to have.

This review is for the version published by Rossignol books. While the illustrations are a touch grainy and the formatting is a bit strange, this version does contain the "Mr.

Author" interruption in Chapter One that many versions omit. The font is a decent size and the paper is a thicker quality that is nice. I think it is worth the money to receive the original text, despite it being a paperback. I don't like it quite as much as The Princess and the Goblin I'd probably rate it three and one-half stars if I could get a half-star , but it is still a very good book.

I was very disappointed by the very ending, though the ending of the main tale was wonderful, the main tale wrapped up beautifully, albeit almost exactly as I pictured so not much surprise in the book.

If the last page or so was cut out, it'd be a much better story. If you read it to children, I suggest not reading the last couple of paragraphs, as I don't think they'd really understand why they were tacked on the end. Honestly, I'm not quite sure why they were myself, but I think MacDonald wanted to make an allegory out of this book although I don't think it suits well for a children's book. The rest of the book is definitely worth reading. See all reviews. See all customer images. Most recent customer reviews. Published 4 days ago.
