The chronicles of Narnia, the lion the witch and the wardrobe. I think it's the beaver talking about how the witch isn't human?

Ok that makes more sense coming from a Christian book. I was wondering if they'd be hatcheting fetuses.

Am I seeing this right? Are you calling one of the defining works of Fantasy literature a "Christian book?"

Sacrifice the Lion for the good of everyone? It comes back from the dead... Not ringing any bells?
