Prince Caspian
NARNIA...the land between the lamp-post and the castle of Cair Paravel, where animals talk, where magical things happen...and where the adventure begins.
Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are returning to boarding school when they are summoned from the dreary train station (by Susan's own magic horn) to return to the land of Narnia - the land where they had ruled as kings and queens and where their help is desperately needed in order to battle Miraz and restore Prince Caspian to his rightful throne.

This series should be read in order.
'The Chronicles of Narnia', by C.S. Lewis, is one of those rare series that should be read at least three times: in childhood, early adulthood, and again late in life. Each time, something new will be gained from this fantastical world and the colourful characters who inhabit it. Narnia is a world where all visitors have an important role to play and everything is far more than it seems. Richly told, populated with fascinating characters, perfectly realised in detail of world and pacing of plot, the story is infused throughout with the timeless issues of good and evil, faith and hope.
