Except me.
Now, don't get me wrong. There were some I enjoyed more than others. Prince Caspian and Voyage of the Dawn Treader were probably my favorites. But as for the over all arc... meh. In talking with my wife I think its because of my age. Without a doubt I came to this way older than the target audience. The Last Battle's message was a bit... heavy handed I thought and that took away from the book. Is it a great intro into the world of fantasy? Yes. Is it for somebody like me, at my age? No; or at least I don't think so. I wanted to like the series more. I don't deny its place in the pantheon of important fantasy books. I just think its something best read at a younger age.
