two books left!

So far Voyage of the Dawntreader is way different than the movie.

Even though I just read Prince Caspian not too long ago, I thought I'd read a little until it became too tedious. So far I'm enjoying it.

Horse and His Boy is getting really good. Incidentally, I never realized how the title is turned around. (We'd expect the boy to have a horse not the other way around.) Silly me.

My wife just had a baby, so I haven't had much time to read, but the fact that my baby's middle name is JADIS should give you some idea how much we love the Chronicles!

I found another favorite bit of prose:

"..it isn't her!" This was bad grammar of course, but that is how beavers talk when they are excited; I mean, in Narnia--in our world they usually don't talk at all.

I think the Wood between Worlds is one of the most exciting ideas I've ever encountered in any book. I'm not sure why I find it so clever. Maybe because the possibilities are endless.

Even though I just read The Magician's Nephew a few months ago, I'm still loving it.
