Dimly Lit

(HT to Kevin at Collected Miscellany)
John Miller over at National Review Online hits one of my hot buttons with “Narnian Order” a look at in what order The Chronicles of Narnia should be read.

Several years ago HarperCollins, the American publisher of the Narnia books, decided to renumber the books so they would be read in chronological order. This puts The Magicians Nephew first instead of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

Let me just say that this was wrong, wrong wrong! Beyond that I’ll just agree with Mr. Miller and encourage you to read his terrific article.
