Chronicles of Narnia Books In Order

Publication order of the chronicles of narnia books, chronological order of the chronicles of narnia books, publication order of the world of narnia books, publication order of the chronicles of narnia companion books.

Speak of children’s classics and The Chronicles of Narnia Series is bound to get a mention, this series of seven volumes having sold over a hundred million copies since its publication in 1950. The creation of C.S Lewis and arguably his best work, the series has undergone several publications over its many years of popularity, transitioning from the pages of literature to the radio, to TV, even making the leap to stage before finally finding a place in modern films.

The Chronicles of Narnia Series chronicles the creation and destruction of Narnia, a fantastical realm filled with mystical and enchanted animals as well as several wonders of magic, largely narrating the adventures of those children that manage to slip through the veil to this magical land in between its two most crucial points.

The core of the series revolves around the ultimate battle between good and evil, honing in on the morally crafted challenges that its various characters undertake with the aim of thwarting the forces of evil, reclaiming the line of ancient thrones and riding into battle as the champions of the great Lion Aslan, protector of all that is good within the Narnian realm.

The Chronicles of Narnia Series has a pretty powerful place in the realm of children’s literature, its initial publication back in the 1950s setting it apart as a story quite unlike any that had been told to date, one that wasn’t afraid to dip its fingers into the world of religion, not only borrowing from Roman, Persian and Greek cultures the mythological elements that proliferated their stories, but tackling head on the themes of race, gender and equality, creating quite the controversy, and in the process setting itself apart from typical children’s tales.

The original structure of The Chronicles of Narnia Series was crafted in 1939, the result of several decades of rumination on the tales that littered Lewis’ childhood; though if anyone should take credit for the creation of the series, it would be the Umbrella carrying faun that Lewis envisaged at his 16 years of age, an image that not only stuck with him for the decades to come, but which he eventually decided to develop into a full blown story.

It is probably because of this rather odd starting point that the books arrived in their specific state, written in what some might term as a haphazard manner, in an order somewhat different from how they now appear; which, most would agree, does little to disparage the chronological structure of the book that managed to maintain cohesion.

‘And were there elements of Lewis’ own life mirrored in his greatest story?’ Some might ask; as with numerous authors, life tends to prove itself to be the greatest of inspirations, in this case Lewis himself suggesting that the departure of girls Katherine, Margaret and Mary from London to Lewis’s own home of Risinghurst in anticipation of a German raid on the city, might have influenced his creation of children Peter, Lucy, Edmund and Susan, who also had to flee London to stay with a relative to escape the Air Raids.

As for Narnia; there is indeed a town by that very name, somewhere near Rome and Assisi, from which Lewis took the name for his world famous title simply because he liked how it sounded.

The series has a pretty interesting publication history which might have affected the order in which the story was structured-at least for the readers, with the original American publisher, Macmillan, choosing to follow the book’s previous publication order, while Harper Collins, to whom the publication rights were transferred in 1994, instead chose to take into account the chronology of the story in numbering the series, hence affecting the order in which it was read for those readers that would come after-a debate still rages to this date regarding the order in which these books, specifically two particular titles, should be read.

The first volume, The Lion, the witch and the Wardrobe seemed to draw upon inspiration from the belligerent atmosphere of the second world war, the escape from war of the four Pevensie children: Peter, Lucy, Edmund and Susan, quickly escalating into a magical adventure; beginning with the discovery of a mystical wardrobe in the house of their host, Professor Digory Kirke, that leads them into the fantastical world of Narnia and pouring into the epic battle against an evil white witch that had brought ice and cold to the magical world, all the while accompanied by the power of the mighty Aslan and a slew of there talking animal companions.

A compelling story indeed, seemingly wrapped in child like mischief but quickly evolving into a complex plot regarding the power of sacrifice, the true face of evil and the ululation of great victory.

Somewhat discontiguous in its approach, Prince Capsian: The return to Narnia, the second book, presented a fresh perspective to the series, somewhat breaking with the base created in the first book, allowing the story to hurtle forward into a new world, one of blood and betrayal, of new kings and family feuds, pitting the Pevensies against the tyrannical Miraz, brother to the previous king and sworn to eliminate his sibling’s only heir in an effort to usurp the powers of the throne.

And this becomes the general motif of a story that, beyond maintaining the existence of Narnia, chooses to weave and twist and turn [sometimes] at break neck speeds, almost always sweeping the plate clean to allow each new plot to exist more or less within its own self contained universe, most definitely within the Narnian world; but availing fresh new challenges, usually with fresh new faces, each plot hiding within it a moral waiting to unfold, new characters awaiting new adventures within which they may find their true selves.

While the core story seems to center around the Pevensie kids, the series has a tendency to illuminate peripheral characters, new and old, during its ran, these including Eustace Scrubb, Jill Pole, Digory Kirke, Polly Plummer, Prince Caspian, King Tirian, to mention but a few, each playing a major role during the VAST amounts of time that pass between books.

Of all the books in The Chronicles of Narnia series, The lion, the witch and the Wardrobe, Voyage of the Dawn Treader and Prince Caspian have been adapted into highly successful live action films over the past decade, with The Chronicles of Narnia Series proving influential in a number of mediums, from cartoons to movies to video games to popular TV series like Lost.

I think the lion the witch and the wardrobe is my favourite book for reasons Glumpuddle mentioned, it’s so perfect in it’s simplicity and packs so much timeless imagery and children’s fantasy tropes into it that it doesn’t have time to more developed – and doesn’t need to be. It’s almost as if the other six chronicles are there to develop some of the themes, characters, tropes etc in LWW. There’s a very brief “road trip” to the stone table in LWW which the Horse and Boy and Silver Chair make entire books out of, the cast of magical creatures in LWW is bigger than any other book packing in witches, wolves, giants, centaurs, fauns, dwarfs, they all get a mention and later on in each book Lewis seems to cherry pick from that cast some of those creatures to develop a little more and give time in the spotlight to (Prince Caspian has dwarfs take center stage alongside the heroes while Silver Chair had witches and giants as the main villains etc) And of course the magician’s nephew is a direct prequel to LWW explaining how everything got there, while Prince Caspian is a direct sequel… the characters spend pages and pages literally talking and debating about the events in LWW! For me LWW doesn’t have to be more developed or detailed, it’s almost like a premature “Greatest Hits” of Narnia and the other books delve into all of the wonderful things Lewis introduces in that first book. I don’t know how I’d rank the others but the last battle is my least favourite, not because I don’t think it’s a good book but it’s rather painful to read. A lot of the magic is gone (in the first half of the book at least) but I suppose that’s the point of it.

' src=

What the podcasters said about how they’re ranking some books lower just because other books are so great, not because there’s anything wrong with them, really resonated with me. If I’m honest, I think all the Narnia books are about the same, with my favorites being A+’s and my least favorites A-‘s. (All the rest are A’s.)

The Last Battle is pretty low on my list too and sometimes I feel bad about that. It really is a masterful piece of writing. Apart from it being the finale, like this episode talked about, I wonder if the reason I don’t rank it higher is because controversial books tend to annoy me. (They come across as begging for attention.) If you look at all the episodes on this podcast that talk about Narnian controversies, you’ll find most of them are either about The Last Battle or could relate to The Last Battle.

I love that you guys talked about whether the ending to The Magician’s Nephew is an unhealthy wish fulfillment fantasy. (Actually, I think I’ve been wanting you discuss that for years.) Like Glumpuddle, I think it works wonderfully from a dramatic standpoint, though I’m willing to listen to counterarguments. I find it a really cool idea that Digory only is given a cure for his mother after he surrenders all hope of doing so. The case can definitely be made that this undermines the message but I’d say it makes the story more interesting.

People who like sad endings can sometimes look down on people who like happy endings, thinking that they just have their heads in the sand all the time and can’t face reality. (Part of the reason I don’t love A Series of Unfortunate Events is because I feel it encourages people to take this view.) While a love of optimistic endings could reflect this weakness, a love of pessimistic ones could also indicate an unhealthy morbidity. It could…but I don’t think it often does. What I see as the big problem is people who like different endings negatively stereotyping each other. People who like tragedy assume that people who prefer the opposite are unaware of or willfully blind to the sad reality of life, but a lot of times people are already fully aware of sad reality and look to stories for something different. People who like uplifting endings assume that people who like tragic ones want everyone else to be as miserable as they are, but if wanting to know you’re not alone in your problems is selfish, it’s also unavoidable. Both camps are simply using stories to help them deal with life’s problems in their own way. They probably have much more in common than they realize.

What Glumpuddle said about how he was surprised he ranked LWW so highly reminds me of myself when I rank books by Charles Dickens. Oliver Twist ends up near the top even though other, later Dickens, like Little Dorrit or Bleak House, are more interesting. The thing is those books also have big flaws that Oliver Twist lacks, although they also have big virtues it lacks. I guess being more complex and interesting is a double-edged sword. It means the possibility of greater highs and the risk of greater lows.

Man, it’s good to have this podcast back!

' src=

I think the best have to be The Last Battle and The Magician’s Nephew. Digory surrendering his mum’s cure was the most emotional scene in the entire series. Add in the creation of Narnia, The Witch’s backstory – its just the most interesting and unique. And with The Last Battle – again, I love how different it is compared to other fantasy books which conclude a series. As I kid, it was just so shocking and interesting to witness the end of the world and how brutal it all way.

' src=

It’s great to hear a new podcast – and to have Rilian back on the show.

I should probably finish my re-read of the series before I do this (I’m currently on VDT), but here is my list right now:

1. VDT 2. SC 3. PC 4. LWW 5. HHB 6. MN 7. LB

I’ve had a similar experience to glumPuddle recently with LWW. I think there’s something about the current state of the world (the pandemic, political division etc.) that made the themes of the story really resonate with me and it reminded me of why I fell in love with LWW (and later the entire series in the first place).

I don’t know if there’s ever been a time in my lifetime where there has been such a global lack of joy and optimism. It does feel like a hundred year winter and the scene of Tumnus recounting the good days in Narnia made me ache with longing… not just for our world pre-2020 (because, of course, that was hardly paradise either), but for a better world.

I probably would have put LWW at 5 or 6 before my last re-read. I might even see it over-taking PC…

I really want to hear glumPuddle’s comparison of Reepicheep and Uncle Andrew now. 😛

' src=

I can’t believe you guys ranked the Last Battle in last place!!!! That one is my FAVOURITE!! Unquestionably!! I love the characters, but also, it’s such a unique book. It’s an “End Of The World” book…. but it’s so HOPEFUL. The world ends, yeah, but what comes after is actually… BETTER. True Narnia is brighter and bigger and more wonderful than regular Narnia was, and (almost) everyone is there – Peter and Edmund and Lucy and Tumnus and Diggory and Caspian and Reepicheep… I just love it. I love how, initially, sure, it was all terrible and horrible and the world was literally ENDING, but what came after was so GOOD. So fantastic and vibrant and full of love and life and hope.

And from an ethical/theological perspective I always loved the concept of good deeds done in the name of a bad deity/bad deeds done in the name of a good deity are actually attributed to the opposite deity. The Calormen soldier who was loyal to Tash, but he was a good dude who did good things “In the name of Tash,” but those good deeds were actually done in the name of Aslan, because they were good; versus everything that Shift did “in the name of Aslan” actually going to Tash. As a concept, I loved that. That who you do acts in the name of doesn’t matter so much as what those acts are.

And the dwarves, and how their cynicism and disbelief carried through even to True Narnia and meaning that when they were given the most incredible, amazing fruits, they all thought that they had been given donkey dung. Again, concept-wise, I loved that. That your attitude has a direct and significant affect on the way you interpret and interact with the world.

Plus, I always lovvvved Tirian and Jewel. There’s a lot of Narnia character’s on my Favourites list (Edmund is at the top), but Tirian is wayyyy up there. He’s such a Good Dude, I love him. Steadfast in the face of doubt, absolutely willing to put everything on the line for his people, even at the literal end of the world…. I love him.

And in terms of emotional impact, for me, Last Battle has the absolute most emotional scene. The Horses? When they came to help and for a moment you thought the tide was turning in the Narnian’s favour — only to have the rug suddenly and brutally pulled out from under your feet?? Oof – UNQUESTIONABLY the most emotive scene in the series, for me. Devastating.

Anyway Last Battle is absolutely my favourite of the series and I Do Not understand why you folks listed it last. 🙂

For me it would go: 1 – Last Battle 2 – LWW 3 – Horse and His Boy 4 – Prince Caspian 5 – Voyage 6 – Magician’s Nephew 7 – Silver Chair

' src=

LWW is my favourite probably followed by The Silver Chair. My least favourite is probably Prince Caspian although I feel bad saying that as I love them all.

That’s interesting because I feel like those things make LWW my least favorite Narnia book (or close to it anyway.) While the description of the harrowing journey is great, (for being my least favorite book in the series, it might have some of my favorite descriptive writing), it’s so short that it doesn’t have the impact of similar “road trips” in the other books. And while the descriptions of the fantastic creatures are great, the tight story requires them to be so brief that I don’t feel the impact as much when I read the book.

Fans seem to either like that The Last Battle is so much more depressing than the other Narnia books or dislike that it is so much more depressing than the other Narnia books. Personally, I’d never want the other books to be more like LB but neither would I want LB to be more like the other books. They’re all great in their own ways.

' src=

Why is no one talking about The Giant Surprise?

' src=

Thanks so much for the comment. I feel your pain, seeing your favorite low on our lists. I felt a similar way when I saw Dawn Treader all the way down at #5 on your list! It’s my favorite book EVER and has shaped me so much as a person, and it still makes me weep.

I adore all 7 of these books, including The Last Battle. Actually, after my second reading of the series, it was my #1 favorite.

Why was LB #6 on my list… Well, I gave some reasons in the episode, but the short answer is: Because there were five books in front of it haha. They’re all amazing.

I suppose the road trip to the stone table is more of a chase scene, which is why it’s probably so short, I agree it certainly doesn’t have the same impact some of the traveling in the other books have. I really enjoy later in the chronicles the little details we get about the adventures, like in the silver chair when Lewis describes the messiness of plucking and cooking a bird to eat. The children never have to worry about how they are going to eat in LWW, the beavers inexplicably have all that food and later on Aslan pulls out a evening tea for everyone out of nowhere! I certainly feel the books improve on writing quality in terms of little details and dashes of realism that immerse you in the story as the series progresses but LWW is still my most beloved despite that

' src=

I read LWW when I was 9. Very postive reaction, except for the battle at the end (Where was it?).

I heard all of the books on audio when I was 12. Mixed reactions all round. Generally postive to generally negative (depending on the book).

I’ll be honest: I’m hear on NarniaWeb because of Wardrobe. Its the only Narnia book to completely steal past my watchful dragons. Both at age 12 and now. The others books were either singed or badly burned depending on what irked me about them. I won’t go into that. I still like them enough to recommend them.

I can’t rank the Narnia books – and remember the joy of reading Wardrobe – without remembering some of the negativity I felt hearing the other books for the first time. Must have had something to do with British narrators; Not down-to-earth enough for 12-year-old American me. (face-palm)

my 12-year-old rank: 1 – LWW: 9/10 2 – SC: 7/10 3 – MN: 7/10 4 – HHB: 6/10 5 – PC: 6/10 6 – VDT: 5/10 7 – LB: 4/10

my rank right now: 1 – The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe: 9/10 2 – The Silver Chair: 8/10 3 – The Magician’s Nephew: 8/10 4 – The Horse and His Boy: 8/10 5 – The Voyage of the Dawn Treader: 8/10 6 – The Last Battle: 8/10 7 – Prince Caspian: The Return to Narnia: 8/10

The rank of the Narnia hasn’t changed much, but my attitude towards them has.

Side Note: I’m a very prickly reviewer. Never gave anything a 10/10. Never will. I’d give The Bible an 8/10, which I guess shows what kind of bloke I am.

I used to have a problem with giving things 10/10 too (or A+) because nothing is perfect. But then I decided, oh well, the rating exists, so I might as well use it (for things where I feel the flaws are super easy for me to ignore.) 🙂

' src=

Welcome back guys! My ranking changes every year and with every reread I think, but I’ll keep this quick and simple if I can: 1. VDT. 2. SC 3. HHB 4. PC 5. MN 6. LWW 7. LB

My reasoning runs like this: I like VDT best because of it’s sense of longing; as has already been pointed out, it’s something that resonates with almost everyone. 2. Silver Chair is a close second because of it’s cool Northern imagery and the existence of Puddleglum. 3. The Horse and His Boy is just all round a solid world building book. There’s nothing especially evocative to me in the atmosphere, really, but seeing the “gritty realistic” political side of Narnia always intrigues me. And it has an EPIC BATTLE!!!! (Woot woot!) 4. Like Glumpuddle, I used to like Prince Caspian a lot more than I do now. As I read it more I found myself getting tired of the ponderous “flashback” and the subsequent trek to find Caspian followed by what felt like a cheap victory. (It is somewhat unsatisfying that Miraz gets defeated by tripping and then getting murdered by his own henchmen.) I like the atmosphere of this book, but not the plot. 5. Magician’s Nephew just doesn’t feel very Narnian… for good reason. It’s well written and fun to read, but you don’t get much of a “Narnian experience” since most of it doesn’t take place in Narnia. 6. I’m surprised I put LWW down here…. but my reasons for not ranking it highly are the same as everyone else’s I guess… awkward moments and behavior among the characters, an almost literal Deus ex machina victory at the end… and the fact that Aslan clapped his paws and shook hands with Peter. 7. Last Battle is last because it’s still depressing, despite the New Narnia bit. Just wait. This order will probably reverse itself in the next decade…. but apparently that’s the case for a lot of people, lol.

Lewis outdid himself with that one! XD

Prince Caspian is lower on my ranking than yours but I actually kind of like how Miraz dies. Given the setup of Peter and MIraz fighting to determine the outcome of the conflict, you expect Peter to kill him. (If you aren’t expecting Aslan to kill him, given the precedent set by LWW.) Then the scene goes in a totally different direction.

I can see why it seems out of nowhere to people though. In the book’s defense however, the characters of Glozelle and Sopespian are kind of set up earlier, though not by name.

“And when there was no one to speak a word for (Caspian), then (Miraz’s) flatterers (as he had instructed them) begged him to become kind. And of course he did.” Chapter 5

“Not forgetting,” said (Glozelle), “that it was we who first put him on the throne. And in all the years that he has enjoyed it, what fruits have come our way? What gratitude has he shown us?” Chapter 13

Of course, none of that is to say other people have to like it. I’m just trying to explain why I like it.

Okay. Thanks.

Of course! I guess you could argue that both possible conclusions do get some setup…. it’s just that the duel scene kind of promises that Peter will kill Miraz and then turns that idea on its head. Or maybe it’s just a really clever plot twist and I just don’t get it. ;D

' src=

I have always liked Voyage of the Dawn Treader the best since I love sea voyages. I love the idea of taking a trip to Aslan’s country through the Eastern Ocean.

Here is my ranking for all seven books:

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. 9/10

Prince Caspian 7/10

Voyage of the Dawn Treader. 9/10

The Silver Chair 8/10

The Horse and His Boy 7/10

The Magician’s Nephew. 8/10

The Last Battle 8/10

Prince Caspian is okay, but I didn’t care much for the flashback with Trumpkin the dwarf. The continuity is not the best with that part of the story.

I. thought of giving The Last Battle a perfect 10/10 rating because it does have a great ending, but I did not like the idea Shift the Ape having Puzzle the donkey dressed up with a lion’s skin. The animals should have been too clever to have been fooled by that scheme. Otherwise, The Last Battle is a very good book.

' src=

The Horse and His Boy had a good story, but I did not care much for Calormen or Tashbaan, its capital. The city was just a nasty place to get out of. Calormen was kind of a boring desert setting and the landscape was a bit too dry for me. However, the talking horses Bree and Hwin were quite likable. Shasta was good too. Hence my rating of 7/10.

I loved Puddleglum in the Silver Chair. He was the best pessimist in the Narnia books. The Silver Chair deserves 8/10 even if the Witch’s underground world was a bit tedious. I loved the adventure of the journey to Harfang too. 🙂

' src=

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is the best book to begin reading Narnia. The scene of Lucy Pevensie entering the wardrobe is the most powerful introduction to the world of Narnia, and there is nothing else like it in literature. It isn’t surprising that many people choose it as their favorite. The book actually is my second choice because I am a little more intrigued by Voyage of the Dawn Treader and its incredible realistic sea journey. It was a very hard decision, but I might like the Dawn Treader and its voyage a little better. But I love them both very much to be honest. 🙂

' src=

I was/am surprised how low it’s ranked on people’s lists too! Like okay, it’s around spot 3-4 for me depending on the day, but not because I have any criticisms of it, just because I love HHB and VDT so much.

For me, LB hits me in all the feels, fear/suspense, excitement, despair, triumph. When the horses die, just like, actually???? And Shift, he is 100% my favorite villain, because he just seems too real to me! The cleverness and opportunistic ruthlessness, and even small things like demanding all the squirrel’s nuts or posing as a human, just makes me want to strangle him.

I love Tirian’s character (as you say, he’s a Good Dude), and it actually makes me super curious what it would have been like if Lewis had written more than just 1 adult protagonist. The doubt he faces when confronted with something claiming to be the mouthpiece of Aslan, almost being taken in before remembering what Aslan should be like. Just AUUUHGGG I could keep talking.

And yeah, Tirian and Jewel are amazing and I love their dynamic of not being the same species but still being best friends and bashing enemy heads together.

And Jill and Eustace in here, scared of what’s ahead but deciding that fighting and dying for something that’s right is right is better than running and hiding the rest of your life. And they don’t act like adults in the bodies of children, they quarrel with each other, they aren’t used to killing the Talking Beasts or Calormene Soldiers and feel sick afterwards. Just AUAUAHAUAGAU I really could go on.

I also think it’s interesting that the first book (chronologically) and the last book both warn against shutting your eyes and ears, making yourself stupider because you’re unwilling to even try believing in something.

If Netflix doesn’t do justice to The Giant Surprise, we riot.

Late to the party, but I have (1-2 and 3-4 can swap on any given day) 1. HHB 2. VDT 3. SC 4. LB 5. MN 6. LWW 7. PC

PC always has been my least favorite for reasons mentioned in the podcast, but ultimately I think the reason the first two books rank last for me is because I don’t think writing style-wise they’re on par with the rest of the series. Still great books, but just not the best in my opinion.

I used to think that the talking beasts in LB were taken in pretty easily, but now I don’t think so.

For one, Tirian mentions he had never seen a talking or dumb lion before, making it seem like they may have gone almost extinct centuries ago. In fact, I don’t remember there being a lion other than Aslan mentioned anytime chronologically after HHB. They also might not have necessarily been able to trust paintings of lions, like we have paintings of mermaids based on manatee sightings.

Second, Shift didn’t just show up one day, broad daylight, and announce Puzzle was Aslan. He was tricky, starting rumors about Aslan sightings and really, why would any of the Narnians think someone was lying about seeing Aslan? That would be blasphemy. And when he revealed Puzzle, he did it at night by a creepy red fire. In my experience, it’s not easy to clearly see what people look like in firelight, especially if they’re a few yards away.

Third, Shift created an atmosphere of fear, making the talking beasts unsure of who to tell their doubts about. Their king was beaten, dragged off, and then completely disappeared after he confronted Shift. I’m guessing the doubters would be afraid of the same happening to them. Actually, now that I think about it, I am 99% sure that Ginger and other beasts “in” on the scam probably reported the doubters to Shift, who had they ambushed and taken away (like I think that’s what happened to the lamb right?)

Four, well Aslan is always portrayed as not a Tame Lion. It’s like His whole deal. Narnia doesn’t really have a definitive record of what Aslan did I.e. their version of the Bible. Misunderstandings, exaggerations, or lies could easily happen if something is mostly passed down through oral tradition, or some things even forgotten. They might not have the best idea what Aslan should be doing (Mr. Beaver describes Aslan as not safe, but good, something the Narnians in LB seem to have forgotten)

And five, well, even in our world people believe some straaaaaange stuff. And that’s with a fact checking computer in their pocket so honestly, the Narnians being taken in doesn’t really Surprise me

Sorry for the long response, it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to talk Narnia with anyone:)

Great discussion, as usual, guys. Y’all describe each book’s special qualities so well, with nuanced points that I’ve never considered.

I just want to say it’s so nice to listen to you talk about Narnia, whatever the subject or debate. It’s refreshing to listen to thoughtful conversation about a series that means so much to me. Makes me want to go reread the Chronicles, or get excited to read them to my kids one day, or work on my own writing. This podcast conjures pleasant, uplifted attitudes. Thanks, and keep it up.

Thanks so much Forrest!

I’ve been trying this for over a week and I still can’t pick a favorite. Somehow either “The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe” or “Voyage of the Dawn Treader” always ends up on top, (and interchanging at times), but that’s as best as I can do for certain. This is almost impossible because they’re all great. Maybe I’ll get lucky eventually.

' src=

I love all of these books, so here are my rankings based on my personal enjoyment (This was difficult, and I really love all of these books almost equally):

7. Prince Caspian 6. The Silver Chair 5. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader 4. The Magician’s Nephew 3. The Horse and His Boy 2. The Last Battle 1. The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe

FINALLY caught up with theses emails, lol. Good to hear Rilian back again! God Bless!

I have read all Narnia books when I was a kid. Then, I loved them all, but some of them I read many times, some only once. One of the books I could read to the end and then start again just after finishing the last page. Then I made a break for about 25 years… A few years ago I started reading them to my daughters (6 and 7 y.o at the time). They loved the LWW, “accepted” PC and got bored with VDT. Now I read Narnia again to my 5y.o. son, but this time I choose the books I loved as a kid. And so far it works – we are on a third book now and he wants me to read whenever I can. So here’s my/our a little sentimental ranking: 6/7 Silver Chair/The Last Battle. I read them over 20 years ago and don’t remember much. I plan to read SC next, because I remember that it featured the Wood Between the Worlds, not in the form from The Magician’s Nephew, but still… Anyway, the position in the ranking is not indicating that they are worst, just that I don’t remember them. 5. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. After few first chapters it was very difficult for me to stay focused, it was so boring. And the last few were a torture to read. After this book my daughters didn’t want to come back to Narnia. 4. Prince Caspian. I remember that I read this book to my girls, after seeing the movie. I thought that they luckily added some action in the movie comparing to the book. But still, I liked it. 3. The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. As for most of the people the first one I read as a kid, and the first one I use to introduce my kids to Narnia. I love it from the moment Lucy gets to the wardrobe. Then the mysterious winter world, fauns, talking beavers (ok. the last one sounds silly after these years…). I somehow forgot about Santa. I must admit however that as in most of the other books from the cycle, it become worse in later chapters. I liked it much more when Narnia was covered with snow. 2. The Horse and His Boy. Many people here complain about this book, but for me this is the best adventure of all books from Narnia. The action doesn’t slow down for full 15 chapters, unlike in the other books of the cycle. But the reason that I appreciate the book so much is that it shows that the created world is complete. In the other books I felt that the locations are there, just for the characters to have their adventures and they disappear once all characters leave. But not in this book. It shows that there is a huge world outside Narnia. Much more interesting in my opinion. Full of cities, people with their businesses and problems. Politics, intrigues and treasons. The world C.S. Lewis sketched in this book for me is more believable than the whole Middle-earth. 1. The Magician’s Nephew. When I was a kid I read this book once a week on average. It is simply perfect. The Wood Between the Worlds is one of the best s/f concepts I met in my life. It inspired me as a kid to write my own stories of worlds in other pools. The dying world of Charm had its rich history and I would love to read books happening there. The scenes with Jadis in London were great. Maybe later the story slowed down, but I was amazed reading about creation of the world I knew from the other books and loved so much. Also the misadventures of uncle Andrew didn’t allow me to get bored. Finally, I loved how the story connects with The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I see that some complain on some inconsistencies, but I didn’t find one. Again – that is a perfect book.

[The Chronicles of Narnia]: A Review

Hi y’all!

I am thrilled to be publishing my review of The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis. I’ve been thinking a lot about this review and how to synthesize a series that means so much to me and many other people. These books can be many things from simply enjoyable to life changing. They can inspire us to read more fantasy, more by C. S. Lewis or perhaps more religious works.

I decided to share my review more in the style of my Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings reviews where I assume that my readers have some experience already with Narnia and are familiar with the basics of the stories. These three series represent much of my childhood and beginning love for reading. So forgive me if I wax a bit overly poetic in my discussion of this favorite.

narnia

The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis showcase the entire history of the magical land of Narnia and the several children from our world that helped shape it’s destiny. According to Goodreads, “Journeys to the end of the world, fantastic creatures, and epic battles between good and evil—what more could any reader ask for in one book? . . . . For the past fifty years,  The Chronicles of Narnia  have transcended the fantasy genre to become part of the canon of classic literature. Each of the seven books is a masterpiece, drawing the reader into a land where magic meets reality, and the result is a fictional world whose scope has fascinated generations.”

This series really is one story with seven parts.

These books are not meant to be read alone. Each story is so connected to the others. I found that it was impossible to separate them as the whole is definitely greater that the sum of the parts. It was fantastic to read them all within about 6 weeks of each other because I had all the details bouncing around my head as I read. Like The Lord of the Rings , this series’ power and poignancy comes in the collection of all the stories together.

Favorite Characters:

  • Edmund has always been one of my favorite Narnian characters. I love his transformation through the series and the wisdom and loyalty he exudes.
  • Lucy is impossible not to like. Her faith, innocence, and courage are just lovely. And I admire her ability to always see Aslan and her deep love for Narnia.
  • Caspian goes on a beautiful journey as well through the series from unsure leader to sea faring King. I loved getting to know him better in several books and seeing the ways he changed Narnia for the better despite setbacks.
  • Eustace was a fun character to see develop in Narnia. I felt a range of emotions in reaction to him but I love where he ends–with a determination to fight for Narnia despite his fears.
  • I loved the combination of Shasta/Cor and Corin because they are such different characters yet were both likable. Shasta is a favorite of mine because he has courage to do good despite never learning the importance of courage.
  • Digory reminds me quite a bit of Edmund. He makes a nearly fatal mistake but learns from it and is able to be better, wiser for it. I love that we get to see him later in the series and see that he stays true to Narnia.
  • There are so many great Narnians to love! Puddleglum is such a fun character! Everything he says is so great. I laughed out loud several times at his dismal outlook on the world. But when all looks lost, I want this Marshwiggle by my side! Tumnus is the first Narnian we are introduced to and I love him from the moment he decides to be Lucy’s friend instead of her enemy. I also enjoyed Trufflehunter , Trumpkin (the DLF!), the Beavers, and  Reepicheep who is potentially the only mouse I would truly like to meet. He is just a fantastic character from his intense loyalty and courage to his desires to see Aslan’s country. I also loved Puzzle because he is so kind and wants to good. Although his naivete is frustrating at times.

A Few Thoughts on Aslan:

  • Aslan deserves a separate place in my review because he is my favorite character in ways no other could be. Naturally, he is a Christ figure in the series, and I was in awe of his creation, sacrifice, and judgment. I hope that when I see his face, I will feel the peace and strength that Lucy feels.
  • I found it fascinating to see how Aslan appears in each novel in the series. In LWW, he appears to everyone and everyone believes in him. In PC, it takes time for everyone to see him–only if they believe. In VDT, only a select few see Aslan. In SC, only Jill and Eustace seem to see him. In H&B, Shasta sees him several times but does not always realize it is Aslan. In MN, all see Aslan but react to him in varying ways. And finally in LB, Aslan’s identity is questioned although everyone has the opportunity to know him–but some choose not to.
  • The end of the series shows the potential to corrupt Aslan’s identity. We have some serious problems in the land of Narnia with the fake Aslan and combining of Aslan and the Calmoren God, Tash, into Tashlan. Some simply don’t believe in him at all. There are a lot of evil decisions and surprising betrayals. Hope seems lost several times. It’s fascinating to see the complexities in the land of Narnia and the way creatures and people view Aslan at the end of the world.
  • Aslan’s Country is intriguing and mysterious throughout the series. We get a glimpse of the mountains in VDT, Jill and Eustace travel to and from Narnia via Aslan’s Country in SC, and LD takes us into the heart of it. I loved the allegorical elements present there–rebirth, freedom from pain and suffering, and an understanding of Aslan himself.

Favorite Scenes from each book:

  • The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe: The First Christmas, Dinner at the Beavers, The end when Aslan defeats the White Witch. Also Turkish delight and tea at Tumnus’ cave.
  • Prince Caspian: I enjoyed the battle sequence and the way Aslan wakes up the trees and takes back Narnia.
  • Dawn Treader: The last part of the journey to the edge of the world, Overcoming the darkness island, Lucy and the magician, Eustace the dragon
  • Silver Chair: Escaping the giants,Leaving the underworld, Puddleglum’s heroics with the fire
  • Horse and his Boy: The whole story is fantastic. Shasta running to warn Archenland and meeting Aslan, Shasta and Corin switch places, Aslan at the victory feast
  • The Magician’s Nephew: The creation of Narnia ( a beautiful sequence showcasing Aslan’s power and goodness), the wood between worlds, and the creation of the lamp post
  • Last Battle: Inside the stable and introduction into Aslan’s country

What We Can Learn from Narnia:

  • I love the simplicity of this story and the truth that is layered throughout.
  • Good will ultimately triumph over evil. This doesn’t mean that evil has no power or will not destroy anything of importance. For example, Queen Jadis is able to trap Narnia in eternal winter for 100 years. But she never understands the deep magic. Aslan defeats her by his sacrifice. Or when Shift creates a fake Aslan that leads Narnians astray, he is ultimately defeated (and eaten). While there are sacrifices made, all is right in the end.
  • Power of Darkness. I was surprised the dark and almost depressing moments in the series. Rilian’s captivity shows the power that evil and darkness can attain and the loss that cannot be fully made right in this life. The betrayals of the dwarves in the final book are particularly dark as well.
  • Importance of strong personal belief. Throughout the series, we encounter characters with varying levels of faith.We have those who believe in goodness in Aslan, those who are seduced by dark magic, and those who are figuring out their beliefs somewhere in the middle. I love the focus on faith and loyalty. And I wonder how is my faith?
  • Aslan’s country and rebirth, overcoming darkness with light, Aslan’s sacrifice on the Stone Table, the great door of judgment, “further up and further in,” Aslan himself as the Lion and the lamb

Tips for reading The Chronicles of Narnia:

  • Read the full series in a short time! This allows the individual books to become one story in your mind. Plus, they are surprisingly short so it’s doable.
  • Read at least one novel out loud to someone else. These are great novels to share with your kids, your siblings, your friends, your parents–anyone! And I think they are even more magical read out loud.
  • Only watch the movie adaptation for The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe . Don’t waste your time ruining characters with the others. You’re welcome.
  • Read the books in publication order, not chronological order. Why did we mess up Lewis’ original order? This was the first time I’ve read them in their publication order and I loved it! We get a new perspective on Narnia through the Pevensies’ eyes then see how Narnia was created and ended. This order focuses the on the connection between our world and Narnia.

The Narnia books are classics and favorites of mine for so many reasons. These books teach us the importance of faith, courage, strength and sacrifice. They are timeless for any reader young or old.

I started reading them in publication order, and now I feel like it would be weird to read them any other way. Plus, the way it’s written and published is how the story naturally flows. Chronologically I wouldn’t think it would flow as well like you said. (Although I’ve never read it chronologically so hey I’m pretty biased haha).

That’s awesome! I have read them chronological before and felt like it didn’t flow as well. Which seems funny since it’s in time order. But the story just feels better the original way 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!

This series means a lot to me as well- my love for them began with the film. They will always hold a special place in my heart.

I read the books- I believe. It has been well over 10 years (I think) since I read them.

So glad you love this series too! It’s a special one 🙂

It is- is special to me. Part of my childhood. Grow up with the series.

Love that! A perfect childhood series!

I’m a strong supporter of reading in publication order! I think Narnia should be experienced the way Lewis first unfolded the story! Beautiful review!

Thank you! And I’m glad we feel the same way–I completely agree!
