<h3>Halfir:</h3>
Weeelllll... The Chronicles of Narnia seems to be doing pretty well, aren't they? We will just have to wait and see if they do die a literary death or something like that. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] </p>
Seriously, why shouldn't we take what Tolkien said about allegory as his opinion? What if the thing that is allegorized in the Chronicles (or any allegory for that matter) was true? And even if the author dominates a piece of work, why should that be so bad?
</p>
Anyway, just browsing around. I'll try to write something longer soon to address this fully.

<h3>Silver-shod Muse:</h3>
Yeah, I also found it depressing that Tolkien and Lewis never came around to patching things up. I liked them both, as well as their works.
