#296 next please.


message 519: by Lu (new)

Lu | 12672 comments Mod
296 - Read a book which takes place/has Alternate Dimensions

Will this one work?
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe


message 521: by Lu (new)

Lu | 12672 comments Mod
I donno, never read it :( Anyone else know?


message 522: by Claudia (new)

Claudia (claudiavstoomanybooks) | 1779 comments Oh wait, the task says dimensions.
So more than one alternate dimension needs to be present?
In The Bone House the characters use lay lines to travel to alternate realities on a quest to find a map and their lost friend. More than one alternate reality is visited, so I think it might work better.


message 523: by Lu (new)

Lu | 12672 comments Mod
Sounds good :)


message 524: by Riana (last edited May 06, 2012 10:17AM) (new)

Riana | 397 comments Well Claudia in the first Chronicles of Narnia (The Magician's Nephew) they travel to different dimensions. You don't need to read it to get the story of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, even the characters differ. But I loved it :-) but then again, I am a Narnia geek, so it obviously depends on your taste.


message 525: by Claudia (new)

Claudia (claudiavstoomanybooks) | 1779 comments I know about The Magician's Nephew, but I didn't want to read it again as I've already read it twice. :)
