I know that Tolkien was always stating "that his work was not allegory" but I thought that Lewis was very clear that Narnia (and his sci-fi series) was completely allegorical.

Could be wrong...

Ok, that's two of you. Maybe I AM wrong. It's been a looong time since I wrote that thesis! Unfortunately, all my books are in storage, so I can't get to them to check.
