Tommi Karjalainen is on page 81 of 194 of Paul for Everyone: The Pastoral Letters 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus
Really clear, except the authorship issue: Why awkwardly repeat "Paul" in quotations when he could just have stated his concerns once?

McGrath spends quite some time on "Tollers", but thus makes the point that he would never had finished the Lord of the Rings without Lewis' friendship and encouragement. I think there's a lesson to be learned right here.

Because of the WW2, "Realism had returned to its throne." (McG 191) - Lewis: "We see unmistakably the sort of universe in which we all have all long been living, and must come to terms with it."

"The story of Christ is simply a true myth: a myth working on us in the same ways as the others, but with this tremendous difference that it really happened" (149). And then McGrath explains that Lewis's myth language probably comes from Tolkien, meaning, "a myth is a story that conveys 'fundamental things' � in other words, that tries to tell us about the deeper structure of things" (150).

And then Lewis stops from journaling after his conversion to Christianity! McGrath paraphrases Lewis's view on journaling as "narcissistic introspection" (140).
