This is the thread to discuss the books C.S. Lewis wrote whether it be the space trilogy, the Chronicles of Narnia or his theological and philosophical works. Please feel free to discuss any and all of his works. Also just as a comparison please list all the Lewis books you have read.

I have read the emtire space trilogy, all of the chrinicles and many of his theological work. These books were a major part of my childhood and I always loved Reepacheep, the bravest Narnian of all.

I've read the Chronicals of Narnia, multipul times, sad thing is I didn't realize it was a bibal story till I saw the movie. I want to read his other works but our library doesn't have them and I never have extra money to buy them.

I am sorry the space trilogy and screwtape letters are awsome. My fave book was the a horse and his boy

I've only read Prince Caspian, but loved it and I've seen the movies (which are always different from the books :p )..

The disney versions are pretty good i think, although i would prefer reading over watching anytime!!!

Personally I think that the Disney version of Lewis's chronicles are anathama, the BBC versions were ok if you can look past the corny old effects. However I am surprised I did not get more posts here, Lewis was a prolific writer on many subjects he had his fantasy series the space trilogy and chronicles, but he also wrote on things like religion, philosophy and politics. I figured someone here would have read and been interested or at least wish to discuss something of Lewis. For one I would suggest reading "the Problem of Pain" its very interesting

I've read the Chronicles of Narnia once.. Well I read the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe twice because I had to read it for school when I was in grade.... I think 4 and I saw the old version of the Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Do I forget most of it.. Yes.. Yes I do but so far the Disney movies have been okay.. I'm still trying to see the new one even though they are going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off sync with the actual books.. But what can you do right?

Also.. I have chosen five more books to read from C.S Lewis because I was in Coles the other day (a branch off of Indigo) and I saw a bunch of his books and I wanted to buy them all.. But once I read them Anaithnid we should talk about them!
