Summary: Use your time wisely...
Review: Having 40 minutes each way to work every day allows me the opportunity to listen to this extremely entertaining and well done adaptation of C S Lewis's Narnia series. While the "Magician's Nephew" is my favorite, this book is right behind it. I have all of the available Audio CD's in this series and have listened to each of them several times. They also make good companions on long trips and plane flights. Each one of these is superbly done. The best part is that you don't have to keep switching tapes like you do with the Audio tape series. I highly recommend these CD's to you and hope that you 'Use your time wisely' and buy these audio CD versions for your library and family!

Summary: Addition to LION is Perfect in Itself!
Review: NARNIA...the magical world created by Aslan, the noble Lion, where the adventures begin and dreams come true.... Now as Bree and his friend Shasta set out to Narnia, they join forces with Avaris and Hwin and discover that, because Queen Susan will not marry Prince Raddabash, Raddabash himself and an army of well-trained men are about to invade Narnia! Now the party must run like the wind to save the freedom of the land they wish to run to for their own freedom. The third CHRONICLE OF NARNIA is just as great as the other two with appearences by Edmud, Lucy, and Susan Prensieve, three of the four wonderful English children we have come to love from THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE, plus a whole host of new friends to love and remember for all of the time of our world...and all of the time of the world of Narnia. Also Reccomended: The Other CHRONICLES OF NARNIA HOLES HARRY POTTER series MARY POPPINS series ROALD DAHL's books & Many More!

Summary: One of the Best Books of All Time
Review: I loved this book. Put a small, timid boy; a loud, outspoken girl; two talking horses; a hyperactive prince; a beautiful queen; and exotic locations together and you've got A Horse and His Boy. Not only that, but this book also gives you the excellent C.S. Lewis style of writing, which is, in and of itself, enough to make me want to read it. It is an excellent addition to the Chronicles of Narnia.

Summary: The Horse and His Boy
Review: The Hosre and his Boy by C.S. Lewis, is a highly imaginitive book. It is a story about a boy named Shasta and Bree, a talking horse. The two want to reach Narnia and leave their slaved lives so badly they can taste it. When they escape, they are bound to find a young girl named Aravis and another talking horse named Hwin who are also making their way to Narnia. As they join together and try to fight their way across the scolding desert, their journey has just begun. Will they reach Narnia? C.S. Lewis made the book so compelling that I couldn't put it down. In a waay that he made me get into the story with a lot of detail and voice. I never expected the book to be so good, but time just flew by! It made me ask myself questions and got me thinking about what was going to happen next. In conclusion, The Horse and His Boy is an overall, fun, riveting book and I highly reccomend this book for everyone who loves imagination.

Summary: Read it!!
Review: I love all the books in the chronicals about Narnia, but this one is a little different. It takes place during book #2 The lion the whitch and the warderobe. It doesn't have the same sort of magic as the other books do, but it is still full of magic. Shasta and Bree's journey is very enjoyable especially when they are joined by Aravis and Vin. It has become my favorite in the chronicals because of the secret past of Shasta and also because it tells us a little about what Lucy, Edmund and Susan went through as king and queens. Read this book, and definatley read the rest of the books in the chronicals.

Summary: The quest to warn Narnia and to find one's origin.
Review: A young peasant boy (with a mysterious past) named Shasta and a talking horse named Bree escape their oppressive land to reach Narnia. They combine forces with a noble girl and her talking horse and discover a plot to conquer Narnia and they are all determined to warn Narnia. In other publications, Lewis had stated that his children's fantasies were just stories, without hidden meanings (I'll always wonder if he said that with tongue in cheek). Yet, one can easily view the lion Aslan as creator, counselor, and savior. This is much more apparent in some of the other volumes in the series. This was the fifth book published in the series and, in my opinion, should be the fifth book read (although others suggest that it be the third book read).

Summary: Might be my favorite in the series
Review: Ive read this book a couple of times when I was younger and would have to place it among the top two in the series. Lewis had a remarkable ability to make his fantasies so realistic and his protagonists so heroic. Behind Lord of the Rings I would count this one of my favorite books of all time and highly recommend it.

Summary: My personal favourite; and, I think, the best
Review: Stories where characters from our world travel to a fantasy world are common but very rarely work ... even in the Narnia books, the transit usually feels artificial ("The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and "The Magician's Nephew" are of course exceptions). So it's good that Lewis wrote one book set entirely within the Narnian world. The heat and dust and wealth of Calormene, and the cool mist of Archenland, and the desert between them, are allowed to exist by themselves. (It's set entirely outside Narnia itself, which is also all to the good.) But the true value of this book lies in its central character. Shasta is the most sympathetic of all of Lewis's child protagonists. His weaknesses and strengths are his, and not arbitrary authorial injections. Shasta's meanest acts, as well as his most courageous, are entirely believable. The last three Narnia books, of which this is one, were all interesting departures from the formula established in the first four; so it would be as well to read these four first, in order to be familiar with the theme of which this is a variation. When I first the Narnia books I thought "The Horse and His Boy" was the driest of the lot. Had I read them in the proper order I think I would have been quicker to realise my mistake.
