They're gonna lose this name. Look at the parked page. It
has links all over it regarding the "Narnia" that C.S. Lewis
created. Bad move on the current owners part!

Agreed!

Although the whois currently says:
Name Server:NS1.FAST-HOSTS.ORG
Name Server:NS2.FAST-HOSTS.ORG

Not Sedo. It looks like a Sedo parking page. Unless Sedo changed their NS details? Could just be the registrars default...

I think they can point to SEDOs Servers from their own Name-Servers.
The reseller may be doing this to earn money on unused domains and not paying the owners of the domain at all. GoDaddy and other registrars do the same thing.
