Prince Caspian (Part 1: Creeks and Constellations!)

Season Two begins with a long-awaited return to Narnia!

Logan Huggins (who also edited and produced this episode) joins Chris to talk about the first few chapters of Prince Caspian.  Among other things, we discuss:

• Searching for "Old Narnia" in a meandering sequel
• The awkwardness of being a former grown-up
• How did Trumpkin, Nikabrik, and Trufflehunter become roommates?
• Why the book is still better than the movie
• Why Prince Caspian should be read second--after The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
• Prince Caspian as a Narnian "Book of Acts"
• Garfield Minus Garfield
• The number of characters and nature of community
• Entering frame tales in Narnia

(I apologize for my very poor attempt at a British accent in the readings, but it would have been far more distracting to hear the children's dialogue in an unapologetically American accent.  By Jove.)
