They also have the $59 range.<BR/><BR/>They are a series, and they do draw on one another. However, the Lion, Witch & Wardrobe could probably be a stand-alone read. <BR/><BR/>I've always enjoyed the series as a whole, as there is the spiritual allegory in them from Creation (book 1) to the Return of Christ (book 7).Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681393590250247430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541805853453511376.post-30814203153720237982007-12-23T03:01:00.000-05:002007-12-23T03:01:00.000-05:00I saw the whole set of books ( #1 to #7) at Blessi...I saw the whole set of books ( #1 to #7) at Blessings in paper back for $59. Is that good? They were on sale. You could buy the individual books too for 50% off. They differed in price. You could buy the Lion, The Witch and Wardrobe for about $7. Do you have to read the whole set or can you just read some of them to get the whole story? Is this like a series where one leads into the other or individual stories?Dougie Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766108514529236618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541805853453511376.post-28588414163454285172007-12-22T07:51:00.000-05:002007-12-22T07:51:00.000-05:00"Safe?

You would think there would be others in the Christian circles we walked in that would have known about this and recommended it.<BR/>Oh well, I am definitely going to read it now.<BR/>See, if you didn't ask us to look for Mr. Tumnus I wouldn't have found out about the book and I may have missed out on something good!<BR/>Thanks!Dougie Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766108514529236618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541805853453511376.post-15443767205621392942007-12-20T12:37:00.000-05:002007-12-20T12:37:00.000-05:00You know, I once bought a beautifully illustrated,...You know, I once bought a beautifully illustrated, hard cover version of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" for someone as a gift.<BR/><BR/>I was thinking the other day that my childhood paperbacks are quite tattered.

It is the only movie in my life that I have made a point of seeing on opening night.<BR/><BR/>Which was a mistake, because every child and teenager in the world was there, many with their youth pastors. I got peppered with Skittles a couple of times, and some kid smilingly booted my seat throughout the ENTIRE movie.<BR/><BR/>But still...good movie. And the books are just beyond compare. They are my favourite books in the world; they are my answer to the "if you were on a desert island, what books would you take" question.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575007011115306127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541805853453511376.post-16960682647122429442007-12-19T07:10:00.000-05:002007-12-19T07:10:00.000-05:00Yep you can get it at Blockbuster.
