We enjoyed this one very much. Sebastian (my 7-year-old son) became an instant fan of Reepicheep the talking mouse, even though I never quite managed to develop a distinctive voice for him.Placing the story primarily outside of Narnia was a good idea; the result is a considerably more imaginative bo...
For the record: I object to the renumbering that the idiotic publishers have inflicted on this series. It is simply and obviously wrong to anyone with the ability to actually read and comprehend the English language. I therefore refuse to acknowledge it. And so, I began reading the series to my son ...
I began to read these books in fifth grade, and I just couldn't get through all of them. It sort of annoys me when an author writes book after book about the same thing. It gets dull after the first few books. Also, I found these books sexist, because the girls never really did anything. They just s...
I used to find Alan very very strange. I was curious about such a creature but in the end found no big love for it. Uh oh, Lewis, you failed.Now I realize how, as some people said, "preachy" this series is. Wow. Yeah, very. The good thing is that if you don't know it is "preachy" beforehand, especia...
As one of the very first full length series I read, the Chronicles of Narnia holds certain memories; my sisters reading them aloud; buying the complete series at eight years old with my Christmas money; thinking that they were clearly the best books ever written. And even though I've read numerous b...
I hate to give such a great series such a lukewarm score, but Naria deserves little more than 3.5 stars as a whole. (Keep in mind that 3 stars means "I liked it" on Goodreads.)The series has its moments of brilliance (particularly in The Magician's Nephew and Voyage of the Dawn Treader), but books l...
Read all of them again in 2003 - great!I'd recommend starting at "The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe" though and reading "The Magician's Nephew" last.
I read these novels individually a couple of times in the 70s, again in the 80s and most recently when the movie was released in 2005. As a child, I enjoyed these stories because they were great adventures. As an adult, with children of my own, I saw and appreciated the deeper meaning and morals p...
