the folowing book in this series in that order is the boy and his horse
note: read all the seven books in 3 days , a weekend
So another reread finished in early January. I like Jill, she's a great character. What I loved about this book is that it isn't perfect. The adventure isn't perfect, it's messy. The children show their faults and grow beyond it. It made them human, because as a reader you can see that even when a person gets guidance it can go wrong and it isn't awful when that happens.
Again, a good book. Definitely not my favourite, but it's great to see characters with flaws.
Only a handful of familiar characters from past books but still a good story.
I see a message in this book where I didn't before. The idea that living apart from God is like being enchanted and convinced that the poorer copies of the real things are the only things. This enchantment robs us of our joy and hope while enslaving us to the desires of the enemy of God.
At the same time, believing and following doesn't mean one has to have some ignorant enlightenment. Puddleglum, like the other Jeremiah, shows us we can love God and be faithful followers while not being happy, shiny people.
I think this one was one of my faves when I was reading the series for the first time though I always missed the Pevensies. While all the Narnia books are pretty religious, I feel like this one was one of the MORE religious ones lol. Still great the second time around.
Eustace and a schoolmate, Jill, are off on an adventure in Narnia. Aslan the lion sends the two on a mission to find Prince Rilian, the son of Prince Caspian, who has been missing for many years. The two go underground and discover secrets below the surface and are finally able to resolve the mystery of the lost prince.
Another delightful story in the Narnia book series.
7.5/10
I think this is the best book thus far for me (publication order). To keep following Eustace is fun and the dynamic between Jill and Eustace is pretty fresh. Marsh-wiggles are awesome and Puddleglum enhances the book with his ongoing drawl of doomsday propaganda. This book feels like an actual adventure, something I don't feel about any of the others (except the first).
The Chronicles of Narnia series was another one of my likable books reading growing up. I read through this entire series in one month and definitely liked it. There were many things that definitely dragged on about these but overall I liked it but wouldn't say I'm a die hard fan.
