Far, far, worse.Interesting, but I would still read it in public.Middlng: Neither awful nor awfully goodWould not like to be seen reading that!Awful... just awful...That belongs in a gold-lame picture frame!Gah... my eyes are burning!

    Scandinavian EuroDisney was a bad idea all round.

    Oh, you kiss your mother with that mouth, do you, young man?

    Apparently reading C.S. Lewis in any language leaves a bad taste in one’s mouth.

    Amazing how C.S predicted the bouncy castle.

    Voyage of the Dawn Treader…the horrifying story of an innocent lad kidnapped by apocalyptic Christian cultists, forced to endure slavery, near-fatal thirst and hunger, undergo extreme body modification, then develops a case of Stockholm Syndrome as the character who’s been antagonizing him the whole time commits suicide in religious ecstasy.

    And that’s not a joke. That’s how I read the story as a child.

    What look like mouse ears are in fact Munch’s ‘The Scream” (left) and the Mekon (right). The dragon doesn’t know where to look.

    The mouse looks so stylistically out of place for a second I thought it was censoring something.

    I’ll let you go ahead and savor the idea of this funky Scandinavian dragon with a boob in its mouth for a few moments.

    @Tom: perhaps that is how dragons suckle their young? When Eustace was changed into a dragon, perhaps he was changed in other ways as well…

    You know, I was under the impression this book was about a voyage in a sailing ship . . . Mind you, the captain WAS a talking mouse.
