If The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe projects the wintry spell of Hans Andersen's Snow Queen, Prince Caspian is a compound of Thomas Mallory and Beatrix Potter: talking squirrels and knights, talking mice who are knights, besieged castles and walking trees (this last may be an homage to Lewis's friend, Tolkien), wizards offering sage advice, and badgers offering hot drinks in cozy caves.
CAPTION(S): DEAD RINGERS: Rope Bridge (nearest) and Thomas Mallory dead heat at Musselburgh
For anyone brought up on Sir Thomas Mallory, fount of Arthurian myth, presenting Arthur as a Roman soldier on Hadrian's Wall is akin to setting Scott Of The Antarctic in Benidorm.
