Reviews

the book as a whole is of scholarly value and can be useful for those interested to learn more about co-inherence and how Williams and Lewis employ this in their writings, and may lead to greater understanding of these authors * Tiffany Brooke Martin, Mythlore * Fiddes' book is consistently well-argued, well-structured and comprehensively referenced, .... it is approachable and thoughtful throughout. * Rupert Loydell, International Times * Charles Williams and C.S. Lewis: Friends in Co-inherence is a rich and informative study which will not only become a significant contribution to the literature of commentary on these two remarkable men, their friendship, and their work, but will also increase our understanding of the concept of co-inherence itself which, in some form or other, stands at the heart of Christian life and faith. * Brian Horne, VII: Journal of the Marion E. Wade Center *

Fiddes' book is consistently well-argued, well-structured and comprehensively referenced, .... it is approachable and thoughtful throughout. * Rupert Loydell, International Times *
