    The Lord of the Rings- J.R.R. Tolkien

    I've heard something about the "Book of Lost Tales", but I was definitely surprised to find there were so many books beyond just the 4 most people know about.

    The Lord of the Rings- J.R.R. Tolkien

    I am just getting into this the same way I am getting into Harry Potter and Narnia. I was into them before, but not enough to really discuss them or want to discuss them. Now I'm trying to approach them like a scientific scholar.

    How Did C.S. Lewis Die?

    Looks like it was kidney inflammation (brought on after numerous transfusions) stemming from high blood pressure. This could be attributed to technological advances at the time.

    Concerns about Netflix's Narnia

    I absolutely cannot speak to this, but I will address the way you phrased it. Firstly, Game of Thrones has always been weird, George R.R. Martin is a freak like Stephen King. He has good writing, but you have to make sure to skip the filler, and this is from somebody who does not even really...

    Concerns about Netflix's Narnia

    The concern is always what are they going to cut out and what are they going to keep, right. While that's true, my main concern is what happened with ASOUE. Doing something like this means you only plan to do the books and leave it at that, which is fine, but what if by the end of it I want more?

    Do you collect the books?

    Perhaps it could be worth it to buy other editions for these changes, but it does not seem like such editions are easy to come by.

    Do you collect the books?

    I am curious about this word here. Apparently, there are American and British editions of the text and one of the key differences is that Maugrim's name is changed for some reason. Have you come across any other differences that people with other editions might not be familiar with?

    Do you collect the books?

    It kind of looks like they all have no pupils, but, then again, they are supposed to be depicting her as evil.

    Do you collect the books?

    Actually, I agree with you there. I would get the board book too because it's another way of telling the same story. That's something of value. It may be essentially the same story, but it would be interesting to see which elements they cut out to make an abridged version.

    Do you collect the books?

    I might want a hardcover and a paperback edition, but I don't know if I can bring myself to keep buying a set over and over again just for some slight differences.

    Narnia In what order should the Chronicles of Narnia be read?

    Well, of course there are plenty of fanfics. But fanfics are real only fun if you can discuss them too along with the series and I usually don't find that very often.

    Narnia In what order should the Chronicles of Narnia be read?

    Is it true that Susan basically just disappears altogether later? Is there any more information about her after that? Are there companion Narnia stories like there are for Lord of the Rings and ASOUE?

    Book Fan? Or Movie Fan? Or both?

    That's why I favor movie adaptations filming stuff that wasn't even in the book.

    Narnia In what order should the Chronicles of Narnia be read?

    Do you think one should read the books first or watch the adaptations? I watched the LWW movie first but I read the book second.
