Any other books like Chronicles of Narnia with Christian based themes!??!?

Question

ANYBODY KNOW ANY OUT THERE! tell me ALL the ones you know! please! thank you!

Answer 1

I don't know but if you're deeply religious try to steer clear of His Dark Materials by Phillup Pullman as it questions some christian beliefs.

Answer 2

http://gospelenigma.com is a free e-book based on what Jesus was saying... it's the story of a couple of children who interpret the Bible on their own! But since they focus on the words of Jesus Christ, they end up challenging traditional theology. So it is quite interesting and entertaining. But probably not much like Narnia, since it is quite unique.

But it is a free read... and reader's comments are there.

Answer 3

I think that's the big one, really.

But there's the Chronicles of Prydain, by Lloyd Alexander which is really similar to the legends of King Arthur (a christian legend) and thus to Narnia (which was also influenced by this)

And...well, LOTR, as well. I haven't read it in so long, so I don't recall any precise examples, but I believe it had "christian" elements, such as resurrection and messianism and holy grails and stuff.

There's also Left Behind, which I've heard super christian-types like. Its about the rapture or something, but it sounds a bit depressing, what with the lack of unicorns and all. The christianity there is definitely more pronounced...its not so much as a theme as a subject.

Also, try CS Lewis' other writings. I don't think they were as popular as Narnia and I'm not sure if any of it was fiction, but you can check it out.

Other than that, I don't think you can get much better than Narnia itself.

Answer 5

C. S. Lewis also wrote three "science fiction"novels called, "Öut of the Silent Planet," "Perelandra," and "That Hideous Strength." They retell the story of the fall in the garden of Eden and the relevance of the devil in the modern world.

Answer 6

Black by Ted Dekker is another allegory. It has a more modern setting but you might enjoy it. It's not geared toward children like Narnia is though.
