Exactly right - well done.Digory is the odd one out. They were all enchanted somehow: Digory by the writing under the bell in Charn, Edmund by the Turkish Delight given him by the Witch, Eustace was turned into a dragon, and Rilian was enchanted by the green witch in SC. However, unlike the others, Digory wasn't really enchanted--he just sort of pretended to think that he was.
Not sure about this, but did they all appoint themselves rulers except the Pevensies?9B
A. Jadis
B. The Pevensies
C. Governor Gumpas

Caspian the Conqueror, Peter the Magnificent and Ram the Great were known by those titles to posterity, but Rabadash the Peacemaker was known to posterity as Rabadash the Ridiculous.10B
A. Peacemaker

D. Great
Is it that the main protagonists had the opportunity to go to all of them, but turned down the opportunity to go to Bism?12B

Well, the other three were baddies, but I assumed that was too obvious.That is not the correct reasoning, Peeps. Besides, do we know for sure Governor Gumpas was self-appointed? I will say you identified the correct odd-one-out, but the incorrect reason.
Well, the Lone Islands had the delievrance from the dragon and attachment to the crown of Narnia, the capture of Caspian and co, the discovery of Lord Bern, the overthrow of Gumpas and appointment of a new Governor. Cair Paravel had the coronation of Peter et al, their arrival back in Narnia in PC, witnessed the death of Caspian in TSC and was taken by the Calormenes in TLB. The Ford of Beruna was the site of the battle between Peter and the White Witch. The Stone Table was the place where Aslan set up camp, the Witch came to bargain with him there, and he died and rose again.11 is probably the trickiest. Give it some thought. What happened at the places I mentioned and what effect did it have (in one case happened slowly)
Well, they're all places that were end-points of journeys, except the Wood which was always a mid-point.I like your answer for 12, but that's not what I'm looking for. What do they inherently all have in common and which one stands out?

Well, the Lone Islands had...the overthrow of Gumpas

Some hints to help. Look first at the people or things that are easiest to pin down and then see if anything can be extrapolated to the others. With #39, I'd start by looking at (c) and try to make a connection with (a), and the theme of the thread might come together. #40, it depends which of the phrases you recognise as to where you start. I would have thought most people will recognise (d). You may well recognise (a) and/or (c) as well, which may help you find the connection in that question. For #41, I'd look first to find a link between (a) and (d), who are minor characters so there is less detail of their actions or characteristics to choose from, and then see how it might apply to the other two major characters.Peepiceek said:#39.
(a) Father Christmas
(b) Corin

#40.
(a) Something that was once nastier than it is now.
(b) Something that made the Pevensie children feel rather gloomy.
(c) Something that turned into a rose-bush.
(d) Something that is not half as mixed as the minds of the people that run it.

Correct - both of those, though sword more than gift.tirian_son_of_erlian said:Right. Well, the connection (c) and (a) share in 39 would be either sword or gift, unless I'm overlooking something else. And...I'm really not sure where to go from there.
Also correct. From memory, (a) is from TMN (ch 1 I think), (b) from PC (also ch 1 I think) and (c) from later in PC.I'm almost positive that (d) in 40 describes Experiment House. I'm still trying to locate the other quotes.
Clue: it has to do with talking.Hmm, for 41 I'll have to examine the Bulldog and Rishda. I don't yet see a connection. But I love the Bulldog; he's so cute (he objects to that remark very strongly).
