Find Out Why MacDonald is Considered a Master of FantasiesThese three most beloved classic Victorian-era fantasies of George MacDonald transport the reader to another time, real and imagined.At the Back of the North Wind is the tale of a boy named Diamond and his adventures with the mysterious spirit force, the North Wind. This captivating story of Diamonds radiant spirit in the face of the poverty and fatal contagions of the Victorian Age has served as an inspiration for generations. The Princess and the Goblin introduces us to Princess Irene, who lives in her fathers castle near wild mountains-a land full of hollow places underneath, where there lived a race of goblins banished by the King. Curdie, a local miners son, is befriended by the Princess and, aided by Irenes magical great-great-grandmother, works to stop the plot by the goblins to take over the kingdom.The Princess and Curdie is set two years later, when Curdie is sent by Irenes mysterious great-great-grandmother on a mission to disrupt the enemies of the King as they plot to kill him. Together the old Princess and Curdie rescue the King and Princess Irene, and Irene and Curdie marry, peacefully ruling the kingdom for another generation.Author George MacDonald was a personal friend and mentor to Lewis Caroll, and also influenced the work of renowned fantasy authors C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkein, and Oz-creator Frank L. Baum. Although MacDonald explored a wide range of subjects in his varied writings, his childrens classics remain the most popular, and are clearly written for the young at heart.This book is also available from Echo Point Books in paperback, ISBN 1635619165.
