Susan, 25 years later

Hmm - which "experts" are these? I've never seen anything that even discussed the date of Susan's death, not even that highly suspect timeline which Walter Hooper produced after Lewis' death.

Lewis never said anything about Susan's death. I wonder who else claimed he did?

I would'nt exactly call them experts, but I couldn't find any other term. I found it on a Lewis site. I'm not sure, though. And you may be correct, PoTW.

But anyway, those are my opinions on what Susan what would've become 25 years later. The funny thing is, how come she never even cared that her entire family is dead.
 
I think that what Susan's siblings said about her obsession with parties and so on was applying to how she had been when they last saw her as mortals. (Note that, at the time this was said to Tirian, they were only just beginning to grasp the fact of their own translation to eternity.) I don't think they were saying, "NOW that Susan knows we're dead, she STILL thinks only of having fun."
 
The mystery of Susan's fate

Anyone gonna take a few guesses about when Susan died, at what age, what happened to her when her family died? I'm taking a good guess she reached the age of 30 before she died. o_O

NOTE: These are just guesses, opinions about Susan after TLB. Nothing offending. :)
 
I made a topic about this calledSusan, 25 years later just a little further down this board.

I do think she lived to an old age although she never completely got over her siblings and parents' deaths. But really, who could?

I kept searching for _some_ already-existing thread where I could put this. It concerns the life of an _actress_ who played Susan. Anna Popplewell was a voice and motion-capture performer in the C.G.I. sci-fi movie "Forward Unto Dawn." This is derived from the Halo game. I spotted Anna's character at the nineteen-minute mark in the video.

As a shameless plug, parody characters based on Halo are included in my parody epic "Spacebullies Two."

I hate to say that it seems Susan is the one Pevensie who fell away from the faith. She does not end up in True Narnia, and it seems from what we glean she was seduced by what St. John calls the Lust of the Eyes, Lust of the Flesh, and The Pride of Life, “For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from God but from the world.” (1 John 2:16 NLT).
