Editorial Review: Product Description: There are a thousand stories in the land of Narnia, and the first is about to be told in an extraordinary motion picture, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, from Walt Disney Pictures and Walden Media. In the never-ending war between good and evil, The Chronicles of Narnia set the stage for battles of epic proportions. Some take place in vast fields, where the forces of light and darkness clash. But other battles occur within the small chambers of the heart and are equally decisive. Journeys to the ends of the world, fantastic creatures, betrayals, heroic deeds and friendships won and lost -- all come together in an unforgettable world of magic. So join the battle to end all battles. The second volume in The Chronicles of Narnia® The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Narnia .... a land frozen in eternal winter ... a country waiting to be set free. Four adventurers step through a wardrobe door and into the land of Narnia -- a land enslaved by the power of the White Witch. But when almost all hope is lost, the return of the Great Lion, Aslan, signals a great change ... and a great sacrifice. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - NarniaI love the idea of other worlds and magic and adventure, and I love the idea of Narnia. However, I am not a big fan of the way C.S. Lewis wrote the book. Everything sounded too... plain and straightforward, I guess you could say. Personally, I prefer books with more interesting, colorful language. But the actual world of Narnia is amazing. By the way, I couldn't figure out how to change the star rating but I give this book three stars. Rating: - Another Winning PrequelI had no idea this was a prequel to a series until my senior year of high school. One of these days I'll have the time to read the rest of them, but I read this one in high school, being familiar with the 1979 cartoon version. This was a fantastic book written in a colorful way. It doesn't have illustrations and doesn't need them. Those with good imaginations can easily picture the world of Narnia and get a real feel for all the wonderful characters inside. Rating: - classic good versus evil taleI put the series in my TBR pile when it dawned on me that I'd never read them. My kids have, and I'd read this one aloud to them several times, but it seemed like a cultural thing I was missing out on, so in they went. The Lemony Snicket books are in there, too. I have no idea what to say about The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe that hasn't been said. I don't even know how I feel about it, because the story's so very familiar. There's the heavy-handed Christian allegory, I suppose, ...

C.S. Lewis's enchanting fairy tale is warm, beautiful, and inspiring with every read. I have personally read it four times in my adult life. (I never read it as a child.) And I could probably read it at least forty more times. In this story Lewis enables the reader to step into the shoes of Peter, Edmund, Susan, or Lucy -- whichever character ... Read More Rating: - Fantasy classicWhat kid does not love the idea of a magical world? And what adult, for that matter? It's an idea that has always been with humanity throughout literature, and Lewis' Christian theme adds a measure of heart and spirit that increases the magic for me. The story is enchantingly simple enough. Four children walk through a wardrobe into a magical world plagued with an endless winter, where they must battled an evil witch for the salvation of the kingdom. While Lewis keeps characters ...
