Thank you very much for your story, kind words, and comments. One could write several books... and did. In the Second World War, jeeps and scout cars, both larger than the normal infantryman and, in the case of the jeeps, with no armor at all, proved very useful for scouting, hit-and-run...

Perhaps statues of those who could accept redemption would be revived. The young Calormene in The Last Battle fell down and worshipped Aslan, and was blessed and redeemed--as was at least one of the dwarves who had shot the Narnian Talking Horses. Forgiveness would involve repentance--which...

It is VERY significant that King Peter says 'if it were lit' when the kings and queens find the lamp post again--a line that SHOULD have been in the movie. The lantern had gone out because it had fulfilled its purpose.

One wonders if one's first statement to the risen or returned Christ should be, 'I'm so incredibly sorry for what I did to you.' Edmund might have said the same thing to Aslan--once he'd heard about what happened at the Stone Table. He would know from Beruna, though, that Aslan loved him.

Hwin was the first to come to Aslan. She was patient, gentle, quite brave, and knew that they could not always be arguing about what to do. Her greeting to Aslan at the Hermit's was one of the most beautiful affirmations of love and faith in the whole series. Aravis needed a loving big sister...

It's a very good idea when you are telling a story to not describe some things with too much detail. Leaving something vague or off-stage lets the reader fill in the gaps with that person's own imagination. It leaves room for discussion, which is what we have here. I don't think Edmund...

That's very good!

And then Puddleglum had to go and put his foot in it. Perelandra also has Lewis's only NICE dragon in it (Eustace doesn't count), and that's a non-sentient. Still, it was nice to Ransom, and he was kind to it..

The Silver Chair has a no-hold-barred bare-knuckles battle between heartfelt faith and smug secularity--which the Green Witch (Somehow I don't think she came from Charn!) doesn't even believe in herself. Atheism takes a LOT of unquestioning faith to endure. What the Green Witch is doing is...

This is an old song from my family: Mare's Lullaby Stand over next to me, my child The wind is blowing strong and wild Shelter in my loving lee, Come, my foal, stand next to me. Watch the rippling grasses bow As the wind blows past them now, When the sun comes up today, You will...

Song From My School Days--or at Least the Tune When I was a foal, I and several other foals from our herd learned our basic letters alongside the human children who lived nearby. From one of their colts--boys, I think you call them--I learned a merry song about some mouse or other. As the...

CYMRU AM BYTH!

That's very stirring. Following a true KIng in battle against truly evil enemies would not be the saddest way to face danger.

Someone has to be Copperfox, and you are very good at it. But this you is a friend, too.

“Ah, Loquacious, now you shall see a thing. Watch, if you desire a marvel.” As a scholar, I am always desirous, as well you know, Mother, of seeing and learning that which is new, and so I stood with him and waited in respectful attention. From the other side of his lower body he drew a...

Stoning (Not that kind of stoning!) This is a story that takes place over 300 years before the birth of Jesus Christ. Nothing bad happens in this tale. The Coast, Not Far From Megara Archonship of Euergetes, The Ninth Day of Maimakterion To my Mother...

I did like the ride on the centaurs at the end. Those were kind and agreeable people who were very kind to Poole and Scrubb. We do tend to lecture as we go, indeed. Body's not the only thing that is the better for exercise.

I didn't like The Moon Maid very much. I didn't like the way Burroughs did centaurs. But Burroughs whisks you off to another world very well and quickly,

Demihumans? We look at you as demicentaurs! But hnau are hnau, after all.
