Isn't
The Magician's Nephew the first book in the series? I know that the older editions have
The LWW as 1st, but I have MN in a scholastic edition (

) and it has a nice big 1 on the spine. Also, it makes more sense, plotwise.
I'm hoping they don't screw it up. I recently reread them (first time since I was, like, six) and I didn't even see the Christian end coming. Then I realized why I was so confused the first time I read them.
