Quote:Rome, the Elven cities of Middle Earth, and Narnia.
Aslan is my king also... although, as C.S. Lewis said, he is known by a different Name in our world...
Darn right!!
I'm so glad someone else gets it!! Everyone thinks Narnia is Christian Allegory.
IT IS NOT! It is Christian FANTASY, world of difference. I LOVE the conversation Aslan has with the handsome cab driver in the Magician's Nephew. It gives the whole game away and people STILL don't get it!!
Thanks, this made my day.

Ok, Goffredo. As resident skeptic, If you HAD to pick a fanciful civilization, which would it be?

Great, Paul! I must have read all those books as a kid at least 3-4 times! I remember the books had very nice fantasy art covers, does anyone know who was the artist who made them?
