‘Magnificent Malevolence’ continues the fictional dialogue C.S. Lewis begin in 1942 (The Screwtape Letters), adding a new voice to the popular story. Wormwood and his devilish colleagues are back – as diabolically clever as ever.

“I was a junior tempter then, but even in those days I showed phenomenal promise – a promise which, as all read this will know, has been amply fulfilled throughout a career of quite unprecedented guile, deviousness, and magnificent malevolence …” From the archives of the Low Command: Ministry of Misinformation (stamp)

Crumblewit (Order of the Sons of Darkness, 1st Class) documents the struggles between good and evil on earth from 1942 (when the Screwtape Letter’s first began) to the present day. Crumblewit’s particular job was to muddle in the lives of the ‘saved’, overthrowing the attempts of Christians to carry out the mission given to them by the ‘Unmentionable One’.

A fantastic read full of humourous rants and compelling anecdotes, this book attempts to bring C.S. Lewis’ clever book which exposed the short-comings of Christians into the present day – and it succeeds.

If you like the Screwtape Letters you are very likely to enjoy this book. In some ways it is an updating of the Screwtape Letters, that is to say that the original material, tone and intent remain in this book and therefore do make it fun to read. The book picks up in effect at the time when Screwtape left off to a degree - indeed if anything this book is a lovely little "church history" book told from the other side, a guide through the intervening years up to the modern day of the changing movements within the Christian faith in those years - their successes and their failures! It's an intriguing and enjoyable take on the modern church that, just as the original did, is likely to sting a little bit at times. Overall an enjoyable read and a nice gentle homage to C S Lewis.
