A compendium of all the recordings, & how they were developed, whether audio or visual, of C.S.Lewis' seven Narnia books, so far, to be released along with the new Magician's Nephew Netflix film.
The Delinquents
The exploits of the gang of 12-year-olds who terrorise the entirety of Woop Woop Primary School in rural Queensland.
We of the Never Never
"Now you are a lioness," said Aslan. "And now all Narnia will be renewed."
(Prince Caspian)
Life in an area of New South Wales, which isn't quite as far away as Back O' Bourke, or North of the Black Stump, but which is still called the Never Never, because people are sometimes told to never, never go there, when it is just as wild as tales of the old Wild West which baby boomers of the 1950's would view in Saturday matinee cinema shows.
A Bush Christening
The tall but true tale (I assure you) of how a native shrub, in someone's backyard, came to be christened VB, after somebody spilled the eponymous beer over it during a barbecue.
The Loaded Dog
"Now you are a lioness," said Aslan. "And now all Narnia will be renewed."
(Prince Caspian)
A Saint Bernard stuggles through the snow with not only brandy but food for a whole day, a book to read, and a bottle of water, for a traveller stuck in the snow.
The Good, The Bad and The Alien
[it's actually a kids' Dr Who novel I picked up at a book-share shelf this week; um....]
There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.
"...when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."
