Clearly I'm in the minority here but this was just okay. I understand that it was written in 1955 and completely respect that it has inspired the fantasy genre as a whole since then, but as an actual story to consume its just not the style I enjoy. I'm glad it read the series as they are classics by this point in history but I'm happy to stick to the films, because they are the rare examples of the films being better than the books!
