Book 3 of the 100 Cupboards series is out and it’s called The Chestnut King. It is written by N.D. Wilson, son of Douglas Wilson (you may have seen him in the film Collision). It is an excellent book. He is a Christian, but he doesn’t make it explicit in the story because that would defeat the whole purpose of it being a story! However, like C.S. Lewis said, there are implied Christian ”golden nuggets” that get by “watchful dragons”. Of course, you have to be a little more craftier these days than when Lewis wrote. There are 3 right now in the series. The third is entitled, The Chestnut King. The first book was 100 Cupboards, and the second was Dandelion Fire.
Here’s a description:
When Henry York found 99 cupboards hidden behind his bedroom wall, he never dreamed they were doors to entirely new worlds! Unfortunately, Henry’s discovery freed an ancient, undying witch, whose hunger for power would destroy every world connected to the cupboards—and every person whom Henry loves. Henry must seek out the legendary Chestnut King for help. Everything has a price, however, and the Chestnut King’s desire may be as dangerous as the witch herself.
