C.S. Lewis

So, as I'm pretty sure you already know, C. S. Lewis has written much more than The Chronicles of Narnia.

He actually has over 300 distinct works to his name, according to GoodReads.com.

Admittedly, though, some of his works seem to be repeated in a way. His list of works includes each of the seven books set in Narnia as well as a few collections, such as a single book putting together the first three books, or even all seven in a collection. There is also mention of the graphic novel to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

But despite that bit of deception where numbers are concerned, Lewis has certainly written more than any of the other authors I have talked about thus far.

I'm pretty sure that at least the majority of his work is founded in Christianity, as he is known as one of the few authors of his century to defend the Christian faith so widely, publicly, and steadfastly.

Oo, scrolling through Lewis's list of works, I just discovered his book A Year with Aslan: Daily Reflections from The Chronicles of Narnia! I wonder why my bookstores never have it? It looks interesting!

Maybe you'll stumble across a title you find interesting too. They're way too numerous to list here, but go to this link and you'll find the list GoodReads has collected.
