The story is considered by many to be the first to open the door to the Golden Age of children's fantasy. The author George MacDonald was born in Scotland during the Victorian age. He was the author of over fifty books and worked as a minister. Recognized as the father of fantasy, MacDonald's novels like Phantastes, Lilith, and The Princess and the Goblin had a large influence on other authors the likes of J. R. R. Tolkien, J. M. Barrie, C. S. Lewis, and Madeleine L'Engle.
