While the strong Christian undertones (and true identity of Aslan) are unmistakeable, I think that claiming that the books are a straight retelling of the Old and New Testaments is rather stretching it.--[[User:M|M]] 20:18, 7 April 2007 (EDT) | While the strong Christian undertones (and true identity of Aslan) are unmistakeable, I think that claiming that the books are a straight retelling of the Old and New Testaments is rather stretching it.--[[User:M|M]] 20:18, 7 April 2007 (EDT) | ||

| + | I agree with M. It does have many similarities with the Bible. These are definitely christian books but to say that they are straight retellings is not ''quite'' true. Could this be changed in some way? --[[User:Additioner]] 14:02, 16 April 2007 | ||

Create article. I love these books. i have read each like 4 times. so cool. their not as heavy as The Lord of the Rings so it is so mmuch easier to read and they are just as enjoyable as The Lord of the Rings. --Will N. 18:26, 15 March 2007 (EDT)
Dear Editors, There appears to be some sort of block on part of this article. When The Silver Chair was typed in it did not appear on the final page. I copied it so it appears on the editing page twice and once on the final copy. Could you find out why it does this so anyone who wants to edit The Silver Chair won't get confused when they look at the editing page? --User: Additioner ,27 March 2007
- Consider mentioning CS Lewis's original order for the novels, and the re-published order (in time for the release of the feature film)? Also, I think the referents for some of the references (ie, which figure is Mohammed in Last Battle) should be made explicit. DunsScotus 14:29, 28 March 2007 (EDT)
- I read the books 3 times. I regard them as Christian allegory. If there is a bona fide reference to Mohammed, I'd like to know about it. But not written as speculation. --Ed Poor 18:27, 28 March 2007 (EDT)
- That sounds very speculative. MountainDew 18:36, 28 March 2007 (EDT)
Narnia as Bible stories?
While the strong Christian undertones (and true identity of Aslan) are unmistakeable, I think that claiming that the books are a straight retelling of the Old and New Testaments is rather stretching it.--M 20:18, 7 April 2007 (EDT)
