'Phantastes: A Faerie Romance for Men and Women' is a fantasy novel written by George MacDonald, first published in London in 1858. The story centers on the character Anodos ('pathless' or 'ascent' in Greek) and takes its inspiration from German Romanticism, particularly Novalis.

Anodos lives through many adventures and temptations while in the other world, until he is finally ready to give up his ideals. C.S. Lewis wrote, concerning his first reading of Phantastes at age sixteen, 'That night my imagination was, in a certain sense, baptized; the rest of me, not unnaturally, took longer. I had not the faintest notion what I had let myself in for by buying Phantastes.'. Seller Inventory # 9781614272052
