Wowza, such masterful writing! 

I loved how Miraz and Peter's fight was written. We were told the events via description from the narrator, characters describing the fight to the Doctor who couldn't see well, and characters discussing it between themselves. It meant the descriptions didn’t feel bogged down, and the experience was a lot more holistic. 

Also, I'M SORRY?? The descriptions of what the trees ate at the feast was so fucking magical and imaginative. One of the most magical things I’ve read in a very long time. 

And then in the matter of a few words the ending had me almost tearing up. 

Something that didn’t really affect my enjoyment of the story, but did rile me up a little, was the Christian message it’s trying to put forward - that it’s important to keep belief in God and follow his lead. HOWEVER, all of the kids have SEEN Aslan before. They have proof of him, so disbelieving in him/not having faith in him now is no way near the same as someone in the real world who either doesn’t believe in God at all, or used to but doesn’t now. One is trusting in something you have literal proof of being real and good, the other is completely blind faith. If I was Trumpkin I’d also think they were all fucking insane. 

However, it wasn’t a message that was pushed a lot in the book, so the above was definitely more a rant on the general idea, rather than criticising Lewis specifically.
