1st Anniversary of the Quiz & Lewis’s Birthday

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lewis was born on November 29, 1898, so today would 
have been his 113th birthday. Also, one year ago today the 
daily quiz was begun on Facebook! To celebrate I’m 
sharing the first four questions that were given that day:

R1 (Narnia): What is the name of the capital of Narnia?
R2 (Life): With whom did Lewis have "the Great War?"
R3 (Other Fiction): What is the name of the creatures that 
are like angels in Lewis' science fiction trilogy?
R4 (Non-fiction): What is the title of the only book Lewis 
wrote on a book of the Bible?
