What C.S. Lewis Achieved

By Philip Wik

What C.S. Lewis Achieved explores the enduring power of Lewis's fiction and apologetics through a series of thoughtful, wide-ranging essays.

From Narnia to Mere Christianity, these reflections examine how Lewis shaped modern imagination, faith, and philosophical inquiry.

Whether you admire him, question him, or both, this book invites you into a deeper conversation with his ideas.
Across essays spanning literature, theology, philosophy, and biography, the book considers Lewis not as a figure to be idolized, but as a writer worth engaging-critically, appreciatively, and honestly.

The topics include creativity, symbolism, moral imagination, apologetic method, metaphysics, and even the controversies that continue to surround his work.

Through discussions of Narnian themes, Lewis's relationships to Platonism and Christianity, questions of heresy in fiction, The Problem of Susan, fan interpretations, and parallels to other authors, the book places Lewis in dialogue with the broader tradition of imaginative literature. It also examines how Lewis communicated difficult ideas to a wide audience, and why his writing continues to resonate.

Whether you're a longtime admirer of C.S. Lewis or a curious reader exploring his influence for the first time, What C.S. Lewis Achieved offers fresh perspectives on one of the most significant literary voices of the twentieth century.
