Yeah, that part at the end was the best for me. Although what really stands out to me about Wind in the Door is that it introduced me to mitochondria. And I could not believe that they existed after reading it, I was like, oh, come on. Then I got to 9th grade biology class and there actually were mitochondria and I was like, whaaaaat.
That's true about Narnia. There's some books in the series that I'm just like... eurrgh (Magician's Nephew, Witch and the Wardrobe, and the Last Battle especially) but Voyage of the Dawn Treader and Silver Chair, I loved them so. It's almost like they're not part of the same series, because I think they're stylized so differently (not as allegorical? more about journeys?).
