Die Welten von C.S. Lewis' Die Chroniken von Narnia und J.R.R. Tolkiens Der Hobbit faszinieren seit Generationen Leser:innen jeden Alters. Bevor sie jedoch literarische Meilensteine schufen, waren Lewis und Tolkien einfach zwei Freunde, die ihre Liebe zu Geschichten teilten. John Hendrix zeichnet ihr Leben nach: von den Schützengräben des Ersten Weltkriegs über ihre Begegnung in Oxford bis zu dem Vermächtnis, das ihre Werke hinterlassen haben. Erzählerischer Text verbindet sich mit Comic-Sequenzen und verdeutlicht, wie das Zusammentreffen dieser beiden Männer das Verständnis von Mythos und Fantasie in der Literatur neu definierte. Ein klug komponiertes Buch, das zeigt, wie Erzählen eine zerrissene Welt wieder verzaubern kann.
