Amazon.com Review
The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis, is one of the very few sets of books that should be read three times: in childhood, early adulthood, and late in life. In brief, four children travel repeatedly to a world in which they are far more than mere children and everything is far more than it seems. Richly told, populated with fascinating characters, perfectly realized in detail of world and pacing of plot, and profoundly allegorical, the story is infused throughout with the timeless issues of good and evil, faith and hope. This boxed set edition includes all seven volumes.

 Chronicles of Narnia boxed set January 7, 2009
I received the set about a week ago and am already in the forth book. I enjoyed the two movies and am enjoying the series. I received the set in
almost perfect condition (was listed as very good). I plan on giving this set to my neice when she gets a little older. She is only six at the time and enjoyed the first movie but has not seen the second movie yet.
All of Narnia in one volume December 30, 2008
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.
Excellent Reading December 22, 2008
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.

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.
To Stop ALL The Confusion.. December 15, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
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 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)
