Chronicle To Books The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe / The Magician's Nephew

As part of a Children's Book Readathon on my blog, we voted and are reading some classic young adult novels this week. Come join us! Today's review is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardobe/The Chronicles of Narnia 6 Vols, the 2nd book in the Chronicles of Narnia series, by C.S. Lewis. I read this book as a child several times, then again as an adult before the movies came out. This was probably my fifth time, but it's one of my top ten all-time favorites.

Set in England during the war, 4 children are sent off to a peculiar, older man's country home for safety from German bombs. Shortly after they arrive, the youngest finds herself embroiled in a small game of hide-and-seek leading her to take refuge in a wardrobe. Eventually her siblings follow suit and they enter a magical world where mythical creatures and animals are all stuck in winter. They try to find a way out, learn they're meant to co-rule the land, and find themselves captured and in a different kind of war. I'm being vague as everyone knows the story or if they don't, I shall not ruin it for you!

C.S. Lewis as a brilliant imagination. I fall for these characters every time. I could read it repeatedly without ever bring bored. I've read the whole series once before, but I'm considering doing it again. I always forget that this is actually the second book in the series, too. Aslan is one of my favorite all-time heroes. The witch is also one of my favorite enemies. Between the bonds of siblings, trusting strangers, the similarities between the war inside the wardrobe and the one in reality, this book tells so much more than the journey on the surface.

Crit Containing Books The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe / The Magician's Nephew

And that was the first novel of the Chronicles of Narnia and its prequel. In Dutch, which is never a good idea. I bought my copy shortly after the film came out, and back then I still read all my books in translation, but I never got around to reading it. Well, I read a couple of chapters of the prequel and then stopped. Anyway, two stars for Narnia and that's really all it was, to me, it was "okay". I didn't like the style much, perhaps that's solely to do with the translation. But other than

The first in the series 'The Chronicles of Narnia'. This childrens book is a must if you love The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. Although an independent story from the rest of the Narnia Chronicles, Lewis introduces you to the White Witch we all know in The Lion, The Witch The Magicians Nephew, I believe, has now been made into a film, which stars Tilda Swinton re-taking her role as The Witch, Jadis.The language is of course written in Lewis time and so new readers to the story must take that

the magicians nephew : how the story began how narnia first came in touch with England before the warthe lion the witch and the wardrobea good book that brings people to a magical land when four children sent away from home find a magical portal into another world and find that they are the solution to that worlds problems.

Continuing with my review of all things Narnian, the second book in the saga, even though it was the first book to be publishes (please see my review of The Magicians Nephew where I discuss the chronology of Narnia (the published order being: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe; Prince Caspian: the Return to Narnia; The Voyage of the Dawn Treader; The Silver Chair; The Horse and His Boy; The Magicians Nephew; and The Last Battle)), I shall now review The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. This

Decided to do a reread on a childhood classic. Not bad as far as stories go. Jesus-allegory-lion is much more apparent than it was as a child. I can honestly say that it still largely bucks many plot tropes I've seen in fiction, which is interesting considering its age. I'll be interested to see what other new and interesting things I find in my second read through of the series.

Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy stepped through a wardrobe into a different world filled with talking beasts,centaurs,fauns, and evil queens. They fight the evil queen and win. They become kings and queens of Narnia.

C.S. Lewis writes with power and vivid descriptions. Great book for any fantasy fan or someone looking for a solid well-written Classic.
