Wait a second, back the beepin’ truck up - they’re re-arranging the order of **The Chronicles of Narnia**? That’s it - that’s the limit. Somebody’s going to get a nasty email. ---

There’s a big disagreement over whether it should be read in order of publication or in order of story. But if you start with…um…Magician’s Nephew, it’s boooooring. The upcoming movie, thankfully, is Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe. ---

Oh yes. The Narnia fights. They fit the pattern. Aslan = big ass _CAT_! Sort of the SUV of cats, if you will. ---

Thankfully, anything else would make no sense… Oh, and let’s not forget the contentious issue of: - ordering milk in a bar. ---
