Not in the content or even in the philosophical and theological arguments presented. Its strength, or “glory” as lewis would put it is in the overarching themes that stretch the imagination.

I know it's not among his most well-known books, but I recommend people check out his Space Trilogy.
The Space Trilogy is fantastic, especially That Hideous Strength.

the contrast between the first+second books and the third is amazing, never seen a stage set so well before
YES. Definitely second this.
