Has anyone read the Chronicles of Narnia? It's a series of books by C. S. Lewis. There makeing new movies of them. They are really good books!

I just read the last one last night.  I love them all, altough, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe seems to be the most popular. They're my favourite fantasy books after LOTR and Harry Potter. _________________

I love those books. We read them aloud as a family when I was seven or so. I'm trying to read them all now, though we have misplaced my favorite: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader!

I've only read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wordrobe, but that was pretty good. Edmund really makes me mad. He is SO STUPID!!!!!!!!!!

So they're pretty popular aren't they? I read them when I was really young - and I think that it was because I was young that I found the books extremely boring and hard to grasp - nowadays, I'd probably have more patience with literature.  _________________

Quote: Edmund really makes me mad. He is SO STUPID!!!!!!!!!! lol, well, actually, it's that he was rather gullible and mean-spirited in the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. To give you a preview of some of the other books, he turns into a noble, brave, and just man, one that if I were a man, I'd want to be like.  Edmund shows the power of what can happen when a life is turned around.
Anyway, as you can probably tell, I've read the books many times over. We've had them in my house as long as I can remember. _________________ Starting October 13th: globe trotting from my kitchen. Follow along on Cook In Fifty-Two

I love them - read them nine or eight years ago, and we've borrowed them on audio tapes and I've read them a lot since then. I have the family copies - the Horse and his boy is in three pieces... My siblings have new copies, annoyingly.
For some strange reason, my favourite has always been "The Silver Chair" even though in a way it's the one I like the least... I really love them all, and cannot choose between them!
Tora Greenleaf, read Edmund's comment about traitors in the Horsew and his boy. True, he's older, but I don't think it's the comment made by someone who is stupid. _________________ <center>i love

I fell in love with The Chronicles Of Narnia when i was very young as i watched a BBC version of The Lion,The Witch and the Wardrobe.Has anyone else seen it?I think it was on in the late 80's... 
I just hope that the new movies are as good!

I hated the BBC series. I'm a book purist, and was very ... shattered by it because I wanted it to be exactly like the book or else. (I would have only been 11 or so when I saw it.)
However, I'm prepared to be lenent with the film... it looks like it's going to be good, so if they take liberties, I suppose I'll have to put up with it. _________________ <center>i love

Same here. I read "The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe about five years ago, and liked it, but wasn't really into Classic Lit. I actually have some of the books on my shelf, but haven't gotten around to reading them yet.
