The Chronicals of Narnia are some of the best fantasy stories though.

Although not a great fan of Christianity, I love the Narnia books... I find the way Lewis manages (especially in the "minor" chronicles) to veil his christian allegory and yet still make it obvious fascinating... The Horse and his Boy and Voyage of the Dawn Treader being the obvious examples... The Silver Chair was always my favourite, with its message taht if you stick to God's rules, you will be saved from eternity in the underworld, and the Last Battles reworking of St John the Divines Revelation serves to make the saint of Patmos's work far more accessible...

Which of the two witches did you think was the better villain (the serpentine green witch or Jadis, "the White Witch"? )

CS thread indeed.
have y'all seen the pre production artwork for the Narnia movies? Very swish and high class, but it's so LOTR it's not right... tho i'm sure some folks will be delighted by this.
BK: As to Screwtape - yes cleese did a recording (tho i didnt know it was award winning!) I prefer Acklands version because he has such a dry droll voice, JC stresses the humor a little too much for my taste (in comparison).
I may have the Cleese recording saved around here in MP3 format - I'll see if I can track it down.
