The one good point is how Tolkien was "My actual brother in Christ, are you really doing Santa Claus and Jesus Christ it's a lion? This is trash lit yo, it's bad and you should feel bad."
Tolkien hated the story. His criticism went beyond evaluation and suggestion to the level of insult.
Late in his life, Lewis - recognising this rift - made overtures to Tolkien again, writing him letters (in one, he concludes, poignantly: ‘I miss you very much.’)

It's also how their friendship ended.
Did they ever reconcile? I love Tolkien and Lewis. Just sad seeing Netflix in charge.
That’s good to know. Thanks!
