Chapter 17, TQSiT
It's up. Moles in the Garden, Part 1. I tried really hard to get another update in February -- it's been slightly more than 2 weeks. So...
Once again, we are not in Susan's point of view, and in fact, it's not in America at all. As happened at the end of Part 1, it's both looking back, and beginning to set the stage for the next part, Part 3. It's the night that TQSiT began, when Peter arrives to see Eustace, Lucy, and Edmund, the evening of their return from the Dawn Treader, so the barriers between Spare Oom and Narnia are rather "porous" -- though of course a thematic element of TQSiT is that the two worlds are not so separate after all.
So, that's that. Thanks so very, very much. And why did it never occur to me before that Neverland and Narnia both begin with the letter N.

Am amazed.
*flails in amazement*
This chapter is brilliant. I said it in the review and I'm saying it here and probably will say it at least ten times in every conversation I have with you from this point on, but, God. This is an Epic chapter, not so much because of what goes on physically but, um, spiritually. It makes me want to philosophize or go out into the desert to pray. Just... I love Asim so much. He's such a brilliant character.
Goodness, I'm such a fangirl for this story.

As for Asim, you'll need to check out the review that Gillian left (with spew warning). I am such a poor judge of what works with readers. I mean REALLY bad. I so appreciate your review and reading.
