nah I'm with you OP...these days there's enough information and biography anywhere that anyone who's unfamiliar with C.S. Lewis could find out in one click that he writes Christian allegory (and that Tolkien made fun of him for it).

But what gets me is that everyone's all up Narnia's ass and no one's ever read Out of the Silent Planet and Perelandra. I mean, the allegory is equally heavy-handed but it's pretty good scifi for pre-space-race era literature. Anyone who thinks all Lewis can do is write simplistic childish lit has clearly never branched out past Narnia.

(don't read This Hideous Strength though. Dear god not only did he lose the plot, the plot never showed up in the first place)

Okay but how many people actually research authors before they read their books just in case those authors have specialist backgrounds in other fields? Like seriously? Especially if those authors are primarily world famous for writing fantasy novels?

idk a lot of people seem to peer into every corner of living fantasy writers' lives...

it's not even a specialist thing, Lewis wrote far more christian apologetics than novels. I wouldn't expect people to know he was a philologist, that's a specialty.
