The Mythmakers by John Hendrix

I don’t read many graphic novels but I adored this title. It tells the stories of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien both individually and in terms of their relationship with one another. The author incorporates two mythical characters to assist in the storytelling, a lion and a wizard. They add to the book’s enchantment.

Each of these men had a complex life. Each wrote books that reflected their beliefs in myth and religion. Both left behind enduring works. Each had poignant moments in life.

I highly recommend this book. I got it from the library but then bought it so that I can enjoy it again whenever I want.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
