We welcome all readers and writers to our weekly discussions. We begin 2020 with an Irish writer who dives into non-fiction and fantasy fiction works, Clive Staples Lewis known as C.S. Lewis (1898 - 1963).

He was born in Belfast, Ireland and then passed away in Headington, Oxford in 1963. He was a scholar where he taught at Oxford University. He was a renowned Christian apologist writer and philosophy. 

His landmark series is The Chronicles of Narnia which consists of seven books features four siblings have been taken in, during wartime, and discovers a magical world of Narnia: talking animals, mythical, and real. There are adaptions of this series in film ranging from the 1979, 1989, and then later on Disney released the newest adaption in 2005.
