I don’t have Netflix anymore but this seems in line with Netflix. Would be great if an adaptation done today cared about the author’s vision. These companies could have some mega hit shows but decide that isn’t important

Unfortunately. chronological order is now considered the book order since the late 90s. A major pet peeve of mine.
Even as a teenager I believed this was done on purpose to destroy the legacy of the books. Magicians Nephew is absolutely the weakest of the books, and serves best as something to fill in the history of a world you have already come to love from the other books. While The Lion the Witch and The Wardrobe is an absolute classic and the best possible introduction to the world of Narnia.
How many people have been turned away from the series by trying to read the "first book" and getting "The Magician's Nephew" instead of the masterpiece that is TLtWatW? How many people in the half century before only read TLtWatW?
They've been trying to destroy it for near 40 years already.
