Heh, reading your reread posts is so interesting for me, because all my old issues come raring to the fore. I think its because they were the first fantasy series I ever read, and so I imprinted on them, but even at the time I kept going WTF at various things in them. And then when I was a little older, I read Tolkien, and some biographical info about Lewis, and basically went "How the fuck could you screw up your own world so badly thanks to being a piss-poor worldbuilder and a fucking racist misogynist arse?" and somehow have never been able to divorce the books from the author ever since.
