内容简介
One of the most puzzling and interesting things in The Chronicles of Narnia is the way Time works. A whole lifetime in Narnia can last no longer than a minute of our time. And while you are in our world, there is no telling how much time will have passed in Narnia when you go back there.
When Eustace Scrubb next goes to Narnia, he finds that more than seventy Narnian years have passed since The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. To Eustace, it has only been a few weeks, but once more Narnia is in great danger. Caspian's only son, the young Prince Rilian, has disappeared and there is no one to take the throne when the old King dies.
Eustace brings someone new into Narnia - a girl at his school called Jill Pole. They are escaping from school bullies when they reach a door in the school grounds:
But when the door actually opened, they both stood stock still, for what they saw was quite different from what they had expected ... [not] the grey, heathery slope of the moor going up and up to join the dull, autumn sky. Instead a blaze of sunshine met them. They saw smooth turf, smoother and brighter than Jill had ever seen before, and blue sky, and, darting to and fro, things so bright that they might have been jewels or huge butterflies.
Under Aslan's watchful eye, Jill and Eustace are soon on the quest in search of Prince Rilian. Things are never simple when you are dealing with magic, especially evil magic, and the children have to trust Aslan's advice as they face one puzzling mystery after another. Luckily, on their side they have Puddleglum, the Marsh-wiggle who is always resourceful but also very gloomy:
We're not very likely to get very far on a journey to the North, not at this time of the year with the winter coming on and all ... But you mustn't let that make you downhearted. Very likely, what with enemies and mountains and rivers to cross and losing our way and next to nothing to eat, we'll barely notice the weather.
Puddleglum is quite right. They are soon lost in a web of strange and wonderful Narnian adventure. There is the beautiful Lady of the Green Kirtle, who sends them to the Giants of Harfang, and her companion, a silent black knight. The giants seem very friendly - but are they to be trusted? And if the dangers in the threatening City of the Giants seem terrifying, it is nothing to the evil that lurks in the mysterious world of Underland.
作者简介
CLIVE STAPLES LEWIS, known as Jack to his friends, was born in 1898. Lewis and his good friend J. R. R. Tolkien, the author of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, were part of the Inklings, an informal writers' club that met at a local pub to discuss story ideas. Lewis's fascination with fairy tales, myths and ancient legends, coupled with inspiration drawn from his childhood, led him to write THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE, one of the best-loved books of all time. Six further books followed to become the immensely popular Chronicles of Narnia. The final title in the series, THE LAST BATTLE, was awarded the Carnegie Medal, one of the highest marks of excellence in children's literature.

Reviewer: Michael Erisman (Seattle, WA)
If you have not read any of CS Lewis classic book series about Narnia, please do so. The stories are wonderfully written and will engage you like few other works. Part spiritual allegory and part fantasy and adventure, these stories are timeless.
My personal favorite of the 7 stories is this one: The Silver Chair. Starting with the unexpected trip into Narnia, the story involves the search for a missing prince and a dangerous and exciting journey to find him. While the plot is quickly engaging and always enjoyable, even after dozens of readings, in this story Lewis uses some of the most powerful of Christian allegories to depict faith, deception, and courage. Choices made along the way are often disastrous and are the result of convenience and comfort over faith. Truly a sound statement into our own journeys, and a spiritual struggle depicted accurately.
I will not spoil the plot, but if you have not enjoyed this series, pick up any of the seven books, or better yet get them all at once. The story starts either with "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe" which was the first published, or "The Magician's Nephew" which is chronologically the first. Either way, you won't be disappointed. Next to "The Silver Chair", I also found "The Horse and His Boy" and "Voyage of the Dawn Treader" to be absolute classics.
Buy this series, and enjoy one of the true treasures in literature from a fabulous writer, the world renowned CS Lewis.
