Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0140302603, Paperback)

"I have never concealed the fact that I regarded him as my master; indeed I fancy I have never written a book in which I did not quote from him."
C.S.Lewis

"George MacDonald is pre-eminantly a mythopoeic writer . . . In his power . . . to project his inner life into images, beings, landscapes which are valid for all, he is one of the most remarkable writers of the nineteenth century."
W. H. Auden

The Sequel to "The Princess and Curdie", This book continues the story of Princess Irene and the young miner boy Curdie.
