    AH. Only on Slashdot can you find some of the most insightful content modded as Troll.

    It wasn't a troll, nor was it ignorant, nor do I have a persecution complex. If you care to have a discussion about it, go right ahead, but please try to open your mind a little (I have no problem with atheists, just don't push it down my throat; and if you don't like what I am saying, you're free to ignore me or, better yet, ask me not to talk about it with you and I'll respect that), get a Slashdot account and don't be so afraid of showing your face, and, most importantly, learn how to spell.

    The order in which he wrote them was TLTWATHW first, the Magician's Nephew last. I believe he did this because it takes a lot of the magic and wondering out of the series if you know the complete origin of Narnia and the wardrobe. It helped to tie of the one loose end that was left after The Last Battle.

    Haha. You said TWAT.
