Phantastes by George MacDonald is a fantasy novel that follows Anodos, a young man who is transported to a magical fairyland where he embarks on a journey of self-discovery.

As Anodos explores the dreamlike landscape, he encounters symbolic figures such as spirits, knights, and a mysterious woman he idealizes. Along the way, he faces temptations, illusions, and inner darkness, gradually learning about love, sacrifice, and the nature of the soul.

The novel is a poetic and allegorical coming-of-age tale, rich with themes of transformation, idealism, and spiritual growth.
