Abe’s bit here is gold. Pure gold.

Absolutely please do His Dark Materials, a popular YA it's probably the first real Multiverse many of us experienced But while we're in YA, you know what Multiverse no one else has the guts to talk about? An abyss into which all clickability vanishes because no one knows what the heck it is? Pendragon. The niche book series that basically only showed up at Scholastic Book Fairs about dimension-hopping spacetime wizards trying to prevent worlds from falling into chaos by preventing tipping points. Anyone else here ever read those?

I really enjoyed it. There’s actually a really compelling theory based on old cosmology, when there were considered to be 7 planets, earth was not a planet but the sun and the moon both were planets. This gives reason as to why Santa exists in this story, as he’s a symbol of joy and and big-heartedness, more so how he would have existed before he became far more a symbol of commercialism. It’s an interesting theory and the poem is pretty easy to find if you just google Narnia/Planets/Poem. Also, Abe is both the asshole and completely right about everything, so I’m feeling very conflicted.
