Did you open a can of worms! Technic...Oh-ho, Arwen! Did you open a can of worms! Technically, my thoughts on the (new) movie adaptations would take up about a dozen and a half blog posts, but I'll see if I can squish it down to one paragraph. On the whole... I love them. The characters were so perfectly cast, the music is amazing, and everything is just Narnia all around. I simply can't wait for the fourth movie - The Silver Chair. :D However, there are a few things I have to glare at Hollywood for... Caspian and Susan's romance, in particular. UGH. Please do not get me started. I can accept some differences from the books (for example, I really like the castle raid in PC), but one can go a little *too* far with deviations.Kirsten Fichterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887462858049277918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-75258361314904476332014-05-30T16:55:00.216-04:002014-05-30T16:55:00.216-04:00Lauriloth - Same here.

He's s'posed to be the king of fantasy right behind Tolkien and Lewis, right? How could we *not* want more?! :D<br /><br />Chuck Black's first series (Kingdom Series) was rather short and on-the-surface, but if you like the allegorical tales, it's definitely a plus. His second series (Knights of Arrethtrae) I like better because there's more depth in the stories. I guess I'm just kinda lucky I found them when I was still young and not yet interested in BIG books, so I really enjoyed them.<br /><br />YES! If you're any kind of fan of pirates, Lauri, YOU MUST READ BATSON'S PIRATE ADVENTURES! Isle of Swords and Isle of Fire. You won't regret it.Kirsten Fichterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887462858049277918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-34531734326495816512014-05-30T14:59:13.396-04:002014-05-30T14:59:13.396-04:00I am completely ashamed of how few of these I'...I am completely ashamed of how few of these I've read, or even heard of! I must go add some things to my to-read shelf on GoodReads now!<br /><br />I NEED to get more of Lloyd Alexander. I've only read the first book of the Prydain chronicles and I'm dying to read the rest.<br /><br />I read most of Chuck Black's series but I never really got to into it so didn't finish it. That was so long ago though, I really need to try them again. I think I might like them better now.<br /><br />And Batson's Door Within trilogy is EPIC. I haven't read his other stuff yet! Been meaning to for years and still haven't. I need to remedy this situation!<br /><br />And what would this list be without Narnia and LotR? (And of course the DragonKeeper Chronicles! :D)<br /><br />Loved this list! Now I have more books to keep an eye out for.Christine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-18085776372651144452014-05-30T12:40:51.849-04:002014-05-30T12:40:51.849-04:00However DID I know which ones would be #1 and #2?;...However DID I know which ones would be #1 and #2?;) This was quite informative as I haven't heard of most of these. I'll check them out!:) Out of curiosity, what is your opinion on the newer movie adaptations of The Chronicles of Narnia? (Well, technically they're not new, but since I was raised with the old, OLD versions, I call them new.) I was wondering if you liked them or not, as they differ a good deal from the books. Just curious:D Anyway, have a great day!Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546655886492251059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-53268560247876814132014-05-30T11:57:26.899-04:002014-05-30T11:57:26.899-04:00I really need to try Chuck Black's series agai...I really need to try Chuck Black's series again. They really didn't catch me the first time. Also the Dragon Quest looks cool! Of course Chronicles of Narnia is in the top 3 ;) I also need to read LOTR (like soon!!)Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12335689970676214959noreply@blogger.com
