Has anyone read the whole series of Chronicles of Narnia email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)1 year ago

I have and it was very interesting. The Magicians Nephew is a great book because it explains how Narnia started and where the wardrobe came from. I hope they do movies for every book.

I tried to read the books when I was in the fourth grade, and I just couldn't do it - I was bored senseless. But when Disney and Walden Media made The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, I decided to try again. I devoured all of the books. They were so touching and majestic. I thought Prince Caspian was a well made movie as well, I really enjoyed it and can't wait for the rest...and I believe they do currently plan to make every book into a film, although that could change if the movies don't do well.

i had trouble reading the books in elementary school...they were pretty much boring..but once i joined a book club in middle school i became interested and read the whole series

I read the whole series long ago. Probably when I was 9 or so. I have since reread them all thanks to my kids who checked them out one at a time from their school library. lol


myLot reputation of 94/100. tinkerick (1009)   ranked 21 out of 21 in the chronicles of narnia  1 year ago

P.S. I loved them then, and still love them now. They're quick and easy reads.

And I had NO IDEA when I first read them as a child, that they were even remotely alluding to Christianity. Seriously - no clue until all the hubbub when the movie came out.


myLot reputation of 83/100. egdcltd (1019)  1 year ago

I didn't realize they were strongly Christian either, and even though I now know it, I still can't really see it. And I was raised a Roman Catholic.


myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)  1 year ago

my teacher told me aslan was supposed to be Jesus and aslan was supposed to come back and save those who were faithful to him in narnia like Jesus is going to do with those in the world who believe in him

I have read it, and do still own most of the books, although I don't have Prince Caspian (or Voyage of the Dawn Treader for that matter) and didn't really remember much of the story. Must have only borrowed that one from the library.

I read it long back and loved the series. Especially the book in which two kids and a witch travel between the worlds. Its really a great read and movies so far exceeded my expectations when compared to book

This is one of my favourite series of books. I must have read them through over a dozen times and even though I'm heading for 60 now, I don't feel too old to read them through again. Love them. Love them. Love them. In the Magician's Nephew when Aslan is singing Narnia into existence, it's such an incredible piece of writing.


myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)  1 year ago

its amazing that the series has been around for many generations and i hope wen i have kids someday that they will read it too.

I read the books long ago but unfortunately ( unlike Tolken ) I've forgotten most of the story. I loved them back then & would like to see them all as movies ( since I'm not going to reread the books ).

I have. I particularly liked the last book, for some reason.=) And, though I don't consider myself particularly religious, I really appreciated all the religious references -- gave me quite a lot to think about at that time.=)


myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)  1 year ago

The last book was amazing. It took me a while to realize what was going on. I didnt realize Narnia was ending. But it was cool.

As a kid, loved, loved, loved Chronicles of Narnia. I hope future generations get the same pleasures. In regards to the religious aspects I didn't get them until later. I think kids get what they will from reading. If your religious the stories are beautiful if your not religious... still beautiful.


myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)  1 year ago

Yes. It is my favorite series of books. I didnt know about the religious aspects until my teacher told me.

I have read all the books in the series and it was a great experience.The movies are boring though.


myLot reputation of 69/100. lanlan011 (409)  1 year ago

I thought the movies were great. I loved them. Prince Caspian was better than the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I hope they make all of the books into movies.
