Oh, sure, now you make me go look it up.

I only knew the answer to the third one beforehand, and I'd forgotten the
guy's name.  I confused the answer to the first one with another character 
from a later book, and I can't even find the answer to the second question 
in the book.  The book seems to just call it the Wood between the Worlds.

Still, given that I last read most of those books somewhere between 15 and
20 years ago (except The Magician's Nephew, which I last read a little over 
two years ago, and let's not go into why I never got a chance to reread the 
other six, thankyouverymuch) I think I still have a pretty good outline of 
most of their plots.
