With all due respect to CS Lewis, who is one of my favorite writers, and with all due respect to his intentions for the character of Suzan, which are valid, and whatnot, the effects, okay, the effects of his decision on the children who were reading his series were poorly thought through. You can't just say, "oh by the way, 7 year old, one of your favorite characters while offscreen, in the last few pages, became an apostate who never got to see heaven" without so much as a footnote to explain why that may not actually be canon
