definitely good books - hope they dont make it too cheesy though - the bbc did a mini series of them years back and they were awful - it would be good if they made it for adults rather than kids but given the nature of the story I can see it being more like the neverending story

yeah they do, its pretty simple to find out if you read the books[i have yet to read all of them] but CS Lewis[author] and JRR Tolkien were best friends, both devout catholics. The Lord of The Rings had a christian subtext as well, gandalf being Jesus[some debate frodo is] and the other 8 being the deciples and so on and so forth
