Book Review

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

by C.S. Lewis

 

This book was great. Again, I am pleased with C.S. Lewis' lack of description allowing the reader to imagine the world for themselves and not bogging down a wonderful story in a 400 page book.

The book isn't such a high adventure as the movie made it out to be. There was less battling and more hanging out with Aslan.

I was impressed by the fact that all the children were able to see Aslan in the beginning, but they had to learn to trust Lucy and follow him for a while before he showed himself to Edmond, Peter and finally Susan. Again teaching us the lesson that Christ is there, we just have to trust and Follow before He will reveal himself to us.

 

I think that C.S. Lewis was a genius in his time, and he continues to teach the world about Christ through his beautifully written books.
