Rereading. It helps cement the story in my mind a little better, so I'm going through the series again.
Book 31: The Narnian - The Life and Imagination of CS Lewis, 314pp
This was a quite well-written biography of Lewis, since it held my attention to the end. Many times biographies have bored me to tears. Not knowing zilch about Lewis or other biographies of him, I'm slow to accept the contents as absolute truth until I would do more research, but the author seemed well-balanced and fair to me, not like he was out to make a Scandal Book.
Quite an interesting man, and although I would still maintain I don't agree with all his ideas about Christianity, I think he also saw deeper into some parts of it than most.
