What people on Hacker News said
it was this and 'Chronicles of Narnia' which first introduced me to fantasy as a child.
Around the same time I read the whole Narnia series. Then next came the Lord of the Rings which was a multi-year epic for me.
LOTR and Narnia awaken my imagination to something beautiful beyond this world, which set the course of my life.
Narnia really opened my eyes to a whole new level of wonder with reading and solidified my love of fantasy and science fiction forever.
