The '''Chronicles of Narnia''' are a series of seven books written by [[C.S. Lewis]].  These books were written as a mythological retelling of the [[Bible]] and published yearly from 1950 to 1956.  [[The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe]] was written based on the [[Gospels]], [[The Magician's Nephew]] is a telling of [[Genesis]], and [[The Last Battle]] as a telling of [[Revelations]].

The '''Chronicles of Narnia''' are a series of seven books written by [[C.S. Lewis]].  These books were written as a fictional story with  allegorical connections to the [[Bible]], and the Christian Faith. The Chronicles of Narnia were published yearly from 1950 to 1956.  [[The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe]] can be seen as based on the [[Gospels]], [[The Magician's Nephew]] as similar to the book of [[Genesis]], and [[The Last Battle]] as drawn from the book of [[Revelations]].
    
The books were renumbered in recent years to reflect the passage of time in the stories. Thus ''The Magician's Nephew'' now comes first.  A debate between Chronological order and Cannonlogical order is still progressing.
