The Screwtape Letters

This book was a thoroughly enjoyable read. Never have I read a Christian book as playful, witty, and engaging as The Screwtape Letters. Lewis welcomes the reader into the undercurrent of demonic operations - as a distressed demon elder, Screwtape, writes to his tenderfoot Wormwood. Immediately placing the reader in the shoes of a tormentor, Lewis takes his audience on a journey embedded in sound theology and current day thought (despite it's yesteryear publication date of 1942) - as he journals the mishaps of Wormwood's mission to bring about the bitter end of a newly converted Christian man. I'd highly recommend this book to those curious about the often forgotten world of temptation and possession - as well as those weary souls who are seeking an alternative to overly dry theological-based works.
