Cool Harry Potter vs. Chronicles of Narnia!?
How can Harry Potter be thought of as dark and evil, when Chronicles of Narnia, clearly has some of the same 'magic' and 'darkness' in it? Do you have a viewpoint on it, do you think one is good and one is evil?

My viewpoint is that Lord of the Rings is better than both of them.

No, seriously Becky, I don't at all get why "magic" is evil in Harry Potter but ok in Narnia.

And we can include LOTR in this as well, as I have seen it in the Chronicles of Narnia category.

It's something I have always wondered. Apparently, the chronicles of narnia have roots and parallels to Christianity or something...

So does LOTR.

Tolkien and Lewis were both devout Christians and buds, part of a group of writers called the Inkspots that used to hang.

Ultimately, no. However, the allusions in any literary work are an important part of determining the meaning behind them.

Lewis used imagery from the Quran to write Narnia, though. Paganism or Islam. Hard choice.
