The Horse and His BoyJourneys to the end of the world, fantastic creatures, and epic battles between good and evil -- what more could any reader ask for in one book?

Six more books followed, and together they became known as The Chronicles of Narnia. For the past fifty years, The Chronicles of Narnia have transcended the fantasy genre to become part of the canon of classic literature. Each of the seven books is a masterpiece, drawing the reader into a land where magic meets reality, and the result is a fictional world whose scope has fascinated generations. |
