How often have you read the last book in a favorite series and wanted to shout "more, more!"? "The Archives of Anthropos" was born when Christian author John White's children begged him to write them a story "just like Narnia", and pestered him until he complied. "The Tower of Geburah" is the third book in the series, but the first one he wrote, and the best.
"The Archives of Anthropos" has not received the attention it deserves, perhaps because it was released into the literary wasteland that stretched between Lloyd Alexander's "Chronicles of Prydain" and the Rowling renaissance. But the books are too good to be left languishing in the desert. "The Archives of Anthropos" would be the perfect Christmas gift for fans of Lewis and Tolkien, and anyone who is walking around long-faced about the Harry Potter movie release being pushed back to summer.
