Let me know if you get up the courage to read "Queen." I'm not going to try to influence you one way or the other, at least, not beyond recommending it, because it really is painful. But good. But ouchy! But so damn good.

If you do read it, though, I'd love to know what you thought. (It's short. Does that help?)

And, yeah, Lewis deserves the "Warper of Children" award for the Narnia series. I see now that the man had issues.
