Ilustration During Books The Fisherman's Lady

I have wanted to return to these MacDonald novels for years now and finally read this one again. It is the story of Malcolm. How does it hold up? At first I didn’t think I was going to like it again at all. I did not enjoy the old piper’s ravings and I remembered being endeared to him before. In the end I found myself anxious to pick up The Marquis Secret which is a sequel to this one. These novels are rambling diversions with forays of great depth. I especially loved the “witnessing” conversation between Mr. Graham and the old Marquis.

Notice Regarding Books The Fisherman's Lady

I tried reading this but gave up. The original language made it too difficult for me to understand. But then was given a copy edited by Phillips and soon understood why this is so highly rated. The Fisherman's Lady is a complex look at life that transcends time and location and yet gives one a sense of being a part of old Scotland.

Classic MacDonald! A Gaelic highland tale which draws you in with suspenseful curiosity and gives a final plot twist that will leave you in tears from its character and goodness.

I had forgotten about George MacDonald. I have read quite a few of his books. I always liked how he wove his sermons into his romance novels. Quite a genius in my opinion, as I like to read doctrine and I love historical romance novels; he also weaves suspense into his novels. Win, win, win - for those of us who like it.I am beginning to re-read this book, which I found in the original format (very hard to read and even harder to understand) available for Kindle at Amazon for free. I think I can

C.S. Lewis said that he never wrote a book without quoting George MacDonald. So, 33 years ago I began reading George MacDonald novels, short stories and sermons. My wife & I read them before the era of heavy editing of his writing to make it easier to read. While I remembered Malcolm, the hero in this story, I had forgotten how thoroughly MacDonald creates his multi-dimensional characters. I don't think I have ever read a novel that was believable where the thoughts, motives and actions of

A good ol' Gothic novel with all kinds of lost identities and locked doors and all the rest of it. Plus it's got a strong, fun Scotch streak to give it extra flavor. If you're reading MacDonald, it's probably because you're a C.S. Lewis fan, and you won't be disappointed in this one-- not as spectacular allegorically, but with all the spiritual iron, so to speak, you'll find in the best of Lewis.

This book is lovely. While being a suspenseful mystery tale, it also develops deeply rich and varied characters and unabashedly laces Christian faith seamlessly throughout. And then it ends with a cliffhanger! Ordering the sequel today!

Many of George MacDonald's books were given to me when I was a young, voracious reader. My parents probably despaired of finding enough books to keep me interested. I started reading MacDonald when he was just being rediscovered by christian literature fans. The first two I read were difficult, for MacDonald wrote a lot of his dialogue in scottish dialect. The ones I read after Michael Phillips became editor were easier to read, but the stories were all wonderful. Good memories and Godly
