All seven books in the Chronicles of Narnia are now available together in a hardcover volume which includes an essay by C.S. Lewis, On Three Ways of Writing for Children, where he explains precisely how the magic of Narnia first came to life.
ed.pendragon: There is magic and there are journeys, mythical beasts and young protagonists, moral judgements to be made and courage to be demonstrated; while the language is more adult, Earthsea is as vivid a world as Narnia and a place you will want to re-visit.
ed.pendragon: This is a rather darker version on the same door-between-the-worlds theme, where the magic resides in the north of a thinly-disguised United Kingdom reached by way of a Wall.
atimco: Both Narnia and Willows feature anthropomorphized animal heroes who nevertheless retain the quirks of their species. The narrative voice is humorous and quintessentially British. Both stories also include spiritual/religious undertones. Willows predates Narnia by over forty years and was a big influence on Lewis (he even wrote a poem with some of Grahame's characters in it).… (meer)
Jannes: The Magicians would not exist if it wasn't for the Narnia books, and is the kind of loving deconstruction of Lewis' work and the importance us readers places in it that you will either love or hate. Give it a try.
cdcottam1: Both works are beautifully mystical and fantastical! Wildwood has many of the fantastical themes of Narnia without the blatantly religious undertones while still containing good moral lessons.
palaephata: This series (there are really six) is another portal fiction that displays subtle Christian allegory. There's more fighting and less exploration of the world in White, and the reading level and content are just a little higher than that in Lewis. I'd read them about a year later.… (meer)
whitewavedarling: Santa Olivia is admittedly for a more adult-based audience, but themes, situations, and character types carry over between the works enough (plus a light integration of religion) that I think the readers of one work set would be well suited for the other.… (meer)
This boxset features the Chronicles of Narnia in chronological order.
This classic story, told as a whole, is a literary masterpiece.....beautifully written and wonderfully imagined.The fantasy and adventure are spellbinding, and the religious implications are great for children.
The Chronicles of Narnia is simply a must have addition to every home library!! ( )
I showed my friends the movies (which are surprisingly book-accurate) since they were childhood favorites and their response was "this explains a lot about you." ( )

All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on forever: in which every chapter is better than the one before. (From The Last Battle)

Boekbeschrijving
Al meer dan vijftig jaar heeft het land van Narnia miljoenen lezers over de hele wereld in zijn macht. Dit betoverend mooie boek zal velen, zeker ook jonge kinderen aanspreken. Welkom in het land waarin meer sprekende dieren dan mensen wonen. Waar je Lucy, Susan, Peter en Edmund en Prins Caspian ontmoet en niet te vergeten de leeuw Aslan.
Clive Staples Lewis was reeds vanaf zijn kindertijd gefascineerd door sprookjes, oude legendes en mythologische vertellingen. Op zijn zestiende creëerde hij reeds een faun die zich met een paraplu en een pakketje onder zijn arm verplaatste in een met sneeuw bedenkt bos. Jaren later kreeg de faun gezelschap van een witte heks en een geweldige leeuw. Hun verhaal werd De Leeuw, de Heks en de Kleerkast, een boek dat een everseller werld all over the World. Inmiddels is dit verhaal succesvol verfilmd door Walt Disney/Walden Media. Zes andere delen volgden. Vanwege het grote succes van de eerste film wordt er nu druk gewerkt aan een volgende film Prince Caspian. Miljoenen exemplaren zijn reeds wereldwijd verkocht van de Kronieken van Narnia. Ze hebben nog steeds die grote verbeeldingskracht die velen aanspreekt.
