Review: The Silver Chair (Book Six)

The Silver Chair, by C.S Lewis, chapter book, ages 10 & up.
Book six in the Chronicles of Narnia series, originally published 1953.

5 Stars

Picking up a primary character from The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, two children escape into Narnia and are sent by Aslan to find the son of Caspian, who has been missing for ten years. With the aid of an all-new set of characters the children must not only find where the prince is, but they must also break the enchantment he is under. The illustrations of Pauline Baynes are most delightful. As always, the text is very engaging, and although many of the characters are brand new to the reader, it doesn't take long to love them and identify with them. Super!
