The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the most logical place to start from a storytelling perspective since it serves as a much better introduction to Narnia than does The Magician's Nephew, and it also makes the most sense from a franchise perspective as it's bound to be a much bigger success as the launching point than The Magician's Nephew would be in its place.
