** Though Lewis [[AuthorsSavingThrow reassured readers later]] that Susan may eventually rejoin them, the book text alone ''heavily'' implies that she has MissedTheCall, in particular Peter's declaration of her no longer being a friend of Narnia and everyone's reactions (or lack thereof, like Lucy).

* Susan's callous dismissal by Peter of no longer being a "friend of Narnia". While Lewis [[AuthorsSavingThrow later said]] that there's a chance that she could still join them, the book text itself gives no such indication and implies that she ''is'' shut out forever [[MissedTheCall by not being with the rest of her family at that specific time]]. Polly's comments that she'll spend the rest of her life trying to stay young also sound '''very''' final, in that she doesn't expect her to ever change, followed by Peter telling them to not think about it. She's never mentioned again and literally ''nobody'' seems to care (not even Lucy, who normally should be one of if not the first to do so) because they're all blissfully in paradise forever.

Edmund's line is more likely meant as an indication that earthly pains and ailments have vanished in the transition from earthly life to immortal life in Aslan's Country, and the gruesome details of the characters' fates in Gaiman's story aren't canon to the novel.

YMMV, to say the least. But, more importantly, it\'s a fan reaction, not within the work itself; otherwise, I\'d be allowed to write an essay on how Narnia fans would disappoint Lewis severely.
