"Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know."
-Aslan-
C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia is a timeless classic, full of enchanting adventures, memorable characters, and deep themes that captivate readers of all ages. Whether it's stepping through the wardrobe into Narnia for the first time or witnessing the battle for its future, the series offers a magical escape into a world of talking animals, brave heroes, and noble quests. My journey into this fandom was an unexpected yet magical discovery, much like the children's first venture into Narnia.
I first encountered The Chronicles of Narnia in a very simple way—by watching the movie adaptation of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. I hadn't read the books at the time, but the moment I saw the Pevensie siblings walk through that wardrobe into the snowy woods, I knew I had to read them all. Shortly after, I found the book series in our local bookstore and was instantly captivated. From the talking animals to Aslan's wisdom, Narnia became a world that felt as real to me as my own.

One of my most memorable experiences with The Chronicles of Narnia was when I read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe for the first time. I was completely drawn into the story, so much so that I'd sneak the book into my bag and read it whenever I could find a quiet moment. One evening, I decided to read a few chapters before bed, but I got so hooked on the adventure that I ended up reading the entire night. I remember being curled up in my room, with just the dim light of a lamp, feeling as if I were walking alongside the Pevensies through the wardrobe into Narnia.
It was one of those rare reading experiences where I felt completely transported. I could almost feel the cold of the winter in Narnia, hear the crunch of the snow under their feet, and sense the mystery of the world they had entered. That quiet, late-night reading session felt magical in its own way, like I had my own secret adventure. When I finally finished the book, it was well past dawn, but I felt exhilarated, as if I had just been on an incredible journey. It's a feeling that's stayed with me, reminding me of how books can make time disappear and immerse you in another world entirely.
