He is considered to be the father of modern fantasy writing as he was one of the pioneers who introduced fantasy as a literature genre. Some of his works depict the Scottish life while others are narrowly connected with Christianity and people’s faith in God. George MacDonald influenced many famous authors such as Lewis Carroll, who he was a mentor of, Mark Twain, J. R. R. Tolkien and many others, who all share the belief that MacDonald’s works have changed their lives and perceptions.
