Complete Chronicles of Narnia, The (Chronicles of Narnia S.)

Fairy tales, the greatest type there has ever been. I will someday read these to my children. Twice. Every night. The entire series. Twice.But, continuing, this book has gained its popular status for a reason. The stories are a little expectable due to their christian tie in, but they are fun none the less.

Finished the Chronicles in 4 days. Wonderful story of family, friends, adventure and more! Suitable for children and big buffaloes like me. Well, maybe just for big skinny buffalo like me. Enjoy!

I loved the beginning. I loved the end. I LOVE NARNIA. ahhh. id have to say my favorite is a three way tie: The Silver Chair, The Magician's Nephew, and The Horse and His Boy. My least favorite while still being a very good piece of literature was probably Prince Caspian. I love you C.S. Lewis for creating this beautiful series.

So awesome. Pure happiness.

The Chronicles of Narnia series are brilliantly written. Each book has left me with vivid images and messages, that will forever be in my mind and heart. These books changed me in a profound way. I have read them three times, and will enjoy the series for years to come. Lewis reveals his mastery at creative, imaginative, writing. This series, in my opinion, should be read by every man, woman,...more

Every book was magic - I especially loved the Silver Chair. This is one of the first series I read to my children. We lived inside this magic world for several months.

classic series that i have loved since childhood. still read on occasion just for the nostalgia.

I truly feel that the Chronicles of Narnia are among the best literature ever written for children, or anyone for that matter.

I truly feel that the Chronicles of Narnia are among the best literature ever written for children, or anyone for that matter. I love this complete set with its gorgeous cover and colored illustrations. It contains all seven stories that take us from the creation of Narnia to its destruction and what lies after that. Narnia is intrinsically oonnected to our world, both literally (or at least through magic) and spiritually/figuratively with Lewis' Christian parallels. I know many critics complain about the blatant religious overtones, but I feel that is the style. Even so, these are great adventure stories full of rich character development and sing-song descriptions. Lewis, if nothing else, certainly knows how to tell and organize a great story, and his imagination is incredible.   hide

Of course, this is a classic piece of childrens' literature that breaks the boundaries and floods into the adult world, too.How odd and annoying that the publishers decided to ignore the original order (as per C.S.

Of course, this is a classic piece of childrens' literature that breaks the boundaries and floods into the adult world, too.How odd and annoying that the publishers decided to ignore the original order (as per C.S. Lewis) and printed the stories in "chronological" order. he book itself is gorgeous and oversized. It shoudl sit out in the hose, not be shelved like an old novel. Peruse the copyright information and read the books in the order they were published. The stories unfold more fully that way - the way they were written.   hide
