Review: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (Book Five)

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, by C.S Lewis, chapter book, ages 10 & up.
Book five in the Chronicles of Narnia series, originally published 1952.

Rating: 5 stars

This book is by far one of the most adventurous titles in the Chronicles of Narnia. Edmund and Lucy are hurled back into Narnia and accompany their friend Caspian on his quest to find the seven lords that his father cast out. Only this time a friend from England accompanies the Pevensies. Who is he and why is his attitude so different? You'll have to read the book to find out. It is truly a masterpiece of action. C.S Lewis makes each character as realistic and life-like as possible, especially Reepicheep. I guarantee the reader will be riding the Dawn Treader, having narrow escapes, and seeing fantastic beasts and creatures, right alongside Lucy, Edmund, and Caspian. You'll love it!
