I’m familiar with Narnia but have never actually read the books. Now reading the origins with the Magician’s Nephew and understanding the religious themes I thought it was a nice read. I could see how the series would have captivated children everywhere. I’m looking forward to the other books in the series as well, especially since I’ve only watched a couple of movies.
