The Narnian Chronicles were my favourite books when I was aged 11 - 14. I loved the varied characters and the way the principal players develop in a credible way. I loved the tales, the descriptions of different worlds, the feeling of being a virtual traveller in very exciting places. I didn't see the strong religious Christian analogies and I didn't spot the racism and sexism. In this book I love Puddleglum.

I loved the Narnian books as a child yet it represents the values of the early 20c. C S Lewis was brought up in an all-male household and only at the end of his life did he develop a strong loving relationship with a Jewish American woman who rocked his ideas of womanhood. This late romance was tenderly and sensitively depicted in Shadowlands a great film starring Anthony Hopkins.

I'm amazed people aren't calling for this pedophile's books to be burned....we have been conned for decades by this pervert's bs.

Don't waste your time defending this degenerate in a response - do the research!

I was enchanted by the entire Narnia series as a child. C S Lewis no doubt helped to promote an early love of reading.

Love the concrete symbols because easy to live into stories. Love the children’s characterizations. Remember what Mr. Beaver says to Lucy. Character development is easy to trace for dense reader.

Could not stop reading it.
I love it.

Reading this is always a little weird for me. Maybe it's the lack of the Pevensie children, but I feel like I have no real connection to any of the characters. I spent so much time despising Eustace in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader that I never read paid much heed to him and of course Jill and Rilian are both new. It's just so strange... almost like there are no protagonists.
