 | | Their combined strength overcomes even "That Hideous Strength," as each of their lives is woven into a respendent tapestry of imagined redemption history. | | | Recounting the lore of Bragdon Wood (Merlin's supposed resting place in That Hideous Strength), Lewis invents a historical character, "the fabulously learned and saintly Richard Crowe," who lauds Arthur's wizard for being "a true King's man as ever ate bread" even though he is "the Devil's son" (22). | | | That Hideous Strength: A Modern Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups. |

| | Ben Kepple: That Hideous Strength |
| | His universe, with complete and hideous chaos at its center, is so cold and so unforgiving and so cruel that only the feverish workings of a few scholars keep mankind safe from the hidden knowledge that would destroy us. | | | That's where the terror comes in, as otherwise normal people go where they ought not tread and learn what they ought not discover. | | | Unless, of course, there is no Paradise, and our works will be forgotten. |

| | Finally, That Hideous Strength tries to define the border between good and evil, man and machine, and what humans were meant to be able to do. | | | From there, the story chronicles the temptation and betrayal of Edmund as he consorts with the evil White Queen, and his subsequent rescue by the lion Aslan. | | | Nonetheless, this was the clearest book in terms of biblical reference and author's intent. |

| | The Partial Observer - That Hideous Strength |
| | The title is a reference to the tower of Babel, taken from an obscure (to me, at least) Renaissance history of the world, with "strength" used to mean "stronghold." The biblical tower expressed the motive of its builders, which was to challenge God in his own realm. | | | This is not a criticism, but a fact; I love good books written for older children. | | | In a fairy tale, the story makes the point by being the point. |

| | George Orwell's review of C. S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength |
| | Lewis’s “That Hideous Strength” can be included in their number – though, curiously enough, it would probably have been a better book if the magical element had been left out. | | | Still, it is possible to think of a fairly large number of worth-while books in which ghosts, magic, second-sight, angels, mermaids, and what-not play a part. | | | However, by the standard of the novels appearing nowadays this is a book worth reading. |

| | The trilogy formed by Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength is called by different people "The Cosmic Trilogy", "The Planets Trilogy", "The Dr. Ransom Trilogy", "The Interplanetary Trilogy" and "The Space Trilogy". | | | REVIEWED BY Third in Lewis's Cosmic Trilogy, That Hideous Strength is longer than the two previous volumes combined. | | | Jane, on the other hand, realizes she has the unique ability of "dreaming true", or seeing real events in her dreams, and she is recruited by the Logres. |

Lewis' writings is how people put God in a box with preconceived notions of religiosity and that theme is constantly visited in "That Hideous Strength". | | | The final book in C.S. Lewis's acclaimed Space Trilogy, which includes Out of the Silent Planet and Perelandra, That Hideous Strength concludes the adventures of the matchless Dr. Ransom. |

| | FT That Hideous Strength -- Review by Johnson |
| | Most futuristic novels seem out–of–date after a decade or two, but That Hideous Strength is more timely today than when the book was published in 1945. | | | I suppose you could say the same of Paradise Lost. | | | To me, That Hideous Strength is a thrilling story that I enjoy more each time I reread it, but I have heard others say that the action is contrived, the characters one–dimensional, and the tone didactic. |
