I'm reading Perelandra. I was expecting Ransom to ultimately win his battle of wits with the Un-man. I see now that was a silly notion!

Also—am I the only one who enjoys spoilers?

My wife likes them…I prefer to be ignorant in advance. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Since sometimes it really matters and sometimes it doesn’t, a “spoiler alert” is always appreciated. Being informed gives me an opportunity to stop reading the article or keep going.

This was great Jacob! You and I are on the same “wave” (please pardon the perelandra pun). I’ve been releasing my reading group’s session notes as we work through perelandra.

I love ransom’s realization that he is the miracle and that he must do something more than words to defeat the Un-man!

Puns are the highest form of humor. All dads know this.

Well since you opened the dad joke door. Here’s an Out of the Silent Planet joke.

What did ransom say to Hyoi after hyoi was teasing him one morning on malacandra?

This hross-ment must stop! 🤣🤣🤣
