Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
This collection includes all seven novels in the series.

Amazon.com Review:
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the world's earliest glimpse into the magical land of Narnia in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Pauline Baynes, the very first illustrator of C.S. Lewis's enchanting creatures and remarkable landscapes, has hand painted her original black-and-white pictures for a beautiful new full-colour collection of all seven volumes in the Chronicles of Narnia series. In keeping with the otherworldly, earthy nature of the stories, Baynes's colors are muted yet rich, tending toward warm greens and golds, printed on lovely smooth, high-quality paper. This stunning gift box is truly a gem, containing, in addition to the best-loved classic, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Magician's Nephew, The Horse and His Boy, Prince Caspian, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Silver Chair, and The Last Battle. Each title also features Baynes's original cover art from the 1950s. Whether entering Narnia for the very first time (lucky you!) or the hundredth, visitors to the land beyond the Wardrobe will gasp in delight to see the fauns, lions, unicorns, and children of Narnia bloom with new life and delicate color. (Ages 8 and older) --Emilie Coulter

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - All of Narnia in one volume
If you, like I, have read your Narnia books to pieces, thn this is a great replacement volume -- or a wonderful gift to give to introduce someone to the world of Narnia. I'd especially recommend it to parents who spend time each night reading to their children -- you will have the whole set at hand, and the children can be kept interested for quite a while! The text is easy to read, and the illustrations capture the people places and "feel" of Narnia well, giving children (and adults!) a face to go with a name etc. WELL worth it!!! Should you want to introduce Christianity to your kids, or to someone else, this volume also gives a wonderfully gentle way to do that as well.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Reading
Chronicles of Narnia are a wonderful set of stories about what Christ can do for us in times of great turmoil and troubles. I recommend this to all parents as a great way to share with their children, young and old.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Prompt Service
Seller was very prompt in sending my book, Chronicles of Narnia. It is in great shape, just like new. I was very happy with the service and would definitely buy from this seller again.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - To Stop ALL The Confusion..
In order to get the intended story of Narnia read them in their theatrical release. At first, i must admitt, that i was confused as to why "they" (movie people and such)would release the 2nd book within the series, The Lion,The Witch and The Wardrobe, before the first, The Magician's Nephew, but afterward i thought of the order into which i was introduced to Narnia. My 2nd grade teacher very first read LWW (#2) to us & then Prince Caspian (PC,#4) and so on with the stories containing Lucy and Edmund. Only THEN is it time to see the creation of Narnia, the importance of the lampost and other seemingly insignificant elements.
So i would say that the correct (or less confusing & complicated) order of reading would be 1: LWW (#2); 2: PC (#4); 3: VDT (#5); 4: SC (#6); 5. HHB (#3); 6. MN (#1) 7. LB (#7)



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Stories to read again and again
This is well-written, fun fantasy with a message (though not a preachy one). Enjoyable for middle schoolers and adults, grab something hot to drink and curl up for a fun escape. This is one of those books the movie doesn't spoil. The characters are memorable and believable.
