C. S. Lewis is one of the few people to write Christian SF.  The message
occasionally go in the way of the story, but not as often as one might
fear ("The Last Battle" is probably the worst).  But I rather like them,
they certainly have a different flavor to most other SF.  Try "The Lion,
the Witch and the Wardrobe" if you like a well written juvenile, or "Out
of the Silent Planet" for Christian space opera.  "The Screwtape Letters"
is also an amusing set of letters between a minor devil trying to tempt
humanity and his boss.
