This is similar to Lewis’ Space Trilogy in more ways than one, some of which include Ransom journey in place of the pilgrim as he travels through strange, new, territory in order to reach his goal, and the use of Malacandra to represent the levels of Hell.

In Malacandra, groups live in harmony with one another and complement each other. On earth, the social system is brutal and evil. The novel is a science fiction that covers Dr. Ransoms (major character) adventures and encounters on a planet that is entirely different from earth. Ransoms lands into this planet by accident after

their precious saga is nothing like its counterpart. I however, share a deviating perspective and would argue that these two fantasy realms are, in fact, homogeneous. In a myriad of ways, Star Wars and Star Trek go hand-in-hand when one visualizes “space travel and adventure”.
