About the AuthorĬLIVE STAPLES LEWIS (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day. Lewis's preferred order, featuring full-colour artwork by the original illustrator, Pauline Baynes. This edition presents the seven books-The Magician's Nephew, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Horse and His Boy, Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Silver Chair, and The Last Battle-unabridged and arranged in C.S. Lewis's classic fantasy series, which has been enchanting readers for over sixty years. Talking beasts, heroic deeds and epic battles between good and evil await you in C. I would highly recommend this collection.All seven tales in The Chronicles of Narnia are bound together, with full-colour illustrations, in one magnificent hardcover volume with a personal introduction by Douglas Gresham, stepson of C. Though she did a great job, in my opinion it would have been wiser to keep the narrators all consistently male for continuity. Prince Caspian was the only outlier, as it was narrated by a female.

The only “downside” is that the narrators are all different, so there is a little bit of difference pronunciation of certain words, or occasionally a slightly different voice for a certain character, but this is almost negligible because there are different main characters for most of the books, and the male narrators are very similar.

These books are all engaging enough to keep the youngest children interested, and yet have enough underlying messages to keep the oldest adults thinking. To get all seven books of the chronicles of Narnia for one credit is too good to pass up! Lewis is was an excellent writer and storyteller that seems to perfectly mingle exciting adventures with deep spiritual truth.
