Reading Lewis is a delight and a challenge all at once. While I understand the broader concepts, there are references to material and ideas I am not familiar with. That being said, I whole heartedly agree with the message of this book that those who want to be in heaven will be there and those who don't won't. Lewis masterfully depicts a number of examples of people who choose not to be in heaven, some more subtle than others.
One concept in the book I don't quite understand and struggle with is the concept of time outside this world. I think the explanation in Mere Christianity was easier for me to understand.
Overall this is an excellent book, but for me takes a back seat to Narnia and Mere Christianity.
