The Place of the Lion

The Place of the Lion is an extraordinary metaphysical fantasy grounded in Platonic ideals. Charles Williams, a novelist, poet, critic, and dramatist, masterfully blends action and thought in this unique thriller.

In the small English town of Smetham, the barrier between the corporeal and the spiritual has shattered, releasing terrifying archetypal creatures. The meddling of a local mage, Mr. Berringer, has unleashed chaos, threatening the very fabric of reality.

Anthony, a student emboldened by his unwavering love for Damaris, stands as the town's last hope. As platonic archetypes wreak havoc, Anthony must restore balance to prevent the impending apocalypse.

Williams, part of the renowned Oxford Inklings—alongside literary giants like C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien—crafts a tale that engages the mind, heart, and spirit with unparalleled imagination, literary skill, and intelligence.
