I just thought it was a pretty cool "mystery adventure" book until it turned into religious fairytale cheese towards the last third.
No fuckin' Fauns, no fuckin' talkin' animals repressing their first laughter, no stupid grasshoppers, no Apples of Teh Life - could've turned out so differently, had it been written first :(

Perhaps you know nothing else of C.S. Lewis' work? Most of his books are Christian theology. Heck, even when he wrote sci-fi, it was explicitly in a Christian context.
