Customer Reviews Average Customer Rating: ![]() Reviewer: Marshall from AMAZING! C. S. Lewis took the 7 "The Chronicles of Narnia" books and combined them into one edge-of-your-seat book!! This novel is a must-have!!! First, go buy the Narnia DVD and then buy this book!!!!!! BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reviewer: Anonymous from NC I am a college student and randomly decided to purchase this book, since I had never read the entire Chronicles of Narnia but had heard a lot about it. I have not been able to stop thinking about what I've read! Not only is Lewis much wittier than I expected, but the way he describes these characters, you get lost in the story! I'm really glad I purchased it! Reviewer: from OK Though critically this series were rated below Tolkien's Rings trilogy, this is an exciting journey for readers who love a good story. I would recomment that any reader, whether they are a christian or not, pass these gems on to their children and wear the binding out with late-night reading sessions. Enthrall your children with these characters who experience sufferning, fear, conflicts, betrayal but always persevere to the end. Lewis' penned one of the ultimate sets for family reading and it should be read to every child who can not read for themselves and read with those who can. Reviewer: alex from USA This saga by C.S. Lewis is simply incredible. The story is fascinating for children, and the brilliant allegory is amazing for adults. This is a must read for any age. Show all 4 reviews |
