About the Lorehaven Guild

The Lorehaven Guild serves a community of heroes who gather to celebrate Christian-made fantastical fiction with delight and discernment. These stories include (but are not limited to) fantasy, science fiction, and beyond.

Heroes of the Guild will explore their favorite creative works in these genres. We will focus on Christian-made stories, yet occasionally include general market books.

Guild heroes can join monthly Main Quest parties that travel into the fantastical worlds of new books. We will explore these stories’ beauty, goodness, and truth (and opposites!), applying their meanings to the real world of our ultimate Author.

Heroes can also join occasional Side Quest parties that travel into other books, such as older Christian-made stories or general market novels.

Review of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

New and returning readers of all ages would do well to seek deeper magic within C. S. Lewis’s faithful classic.
· January 2023

C. S. Lewis’s first fantasy starts simply enough. Before page one ends, four English children have escaped their 1940s air-raids and arrived in an old country manor. There the youngest girl, Lucy Pevensie, discovers a mysterious wardrobe leading to a frozen fairy-land. Soon her sister and brothers join her adventure to fulfill ancient prophecy and save all Narnia from the White Witch, aided by the messianic great Lion, Aslan. To be sure, spiritual themes more than season this story. Lewis himself said The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is not allegory, but a “supposal” of Christ’s potential actions ruling a world of magic and talking beasts. New and returning readers of all ages would do well to seek deeper magic within this faithful classic.1

Best for: Fans eight and up for personal reading, slightly younger for reading aloud.

Discern: Mythical beasts who serve a Christ-like lion, Faun threatens to kidnap child yet repents, villain turns heroes to stone, child betrays siblings and is imprisoned before his redemption, hero sacrifices himself to villain (with discussion about her being “the Emperor’s hangman”), summaries of evil creatures and battles.
