Book Reviews of The Chronicles of Narnia and Philosophy: The Lion, the Witch, and the Worldview (Popular Culture and Philosophy)

Book Review: The worst of this series
Summary: 1 Stars

By "Philosophy," apparently they mean conservative, ecumenical religious ideology. If you disagree with Neil Gaiman and think poor Susan got what she deserved, this book is for you. I'm not a member of an organized religion (in fact I have a distaste for them) but I always saw a real spiritual beauty in Aslan that made me hope God is that deep and full of love. This book, though, reads more religion into the books than is justified. I recognize that religious philosophy is a valid area of thought, but this book offers little else, which is a real disappointment.
