They open a door and enter a world
Narnia ... a land frozen in eternal winter ... a country waiting to be set free.

C. S. Lewis (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably the most influential Christian writer of his day. He was a Fellow and Tutor in English literature at Oxford University until 1954 when he was unanimously elected to the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance English at Cambridge University, a position he held until his retirement. His major contributions in literary criticism, children’s literature, fantasy literature, and popular theology brought him international renown and acclaim. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include The Chronicles of Narnia, Out of the Silent Planet, The Four Loves, The Screwtape Letters, and Mere Christianity.

This book is fabulous. What I found is, to make it a better read, constantly compare Aslan to Jesus. It makes the story really come to life.

This is a fabulous book. It is such a lovely tale for Christians. Aslan, the great Lion is killed unjustly, Like Jesus, but returns triumphantly. It is amazing! It is no surprise it is so popular. I recommend this-HIGHLY! Please buy it. Also consider the Focus On The Family audio adaptation of it-it make sit come a live and make sit all the more meaningful. Super-Brilliant.
