I bet that if I told you that somebody had written a fic about Prince Caspian attempting to write science fiction, you'd just laugh, wouldn't you?

Which just goes to show how wrong you could be, because

tree_and_leafhas written a story about exactly that, and it is brilliant.

Title: Fly me to the Moon
Author:

tree_and_leaf
Fandom: Narnia (bookverse, but not actually incompatible with the movies)
Spoilers: Prince Caspian, Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Set post VODT; (also, if you've read The Magician's Nephew, you'll see that Caspian has an overly optimistic view of a certain character from Narnia's past)
Ratings/ warnings: PG; may be triggering for people who are afraid of astrophysics, cockroaches, nuclear war or trying to construct proper plots.
Characters: Caspian, Ramandu's daughter and, in flashback, Edmund, Eustace and Lucy.
Words: 2473
Summary: In which Caspian attempts to become Narnia's first author of hard-boiled detective fiction and science fiction (at the same time), and broods.

Go and read it now, if you ever enjoyed the Narnia series. You won't regret it.
