Lewis on top form again with the penultimate book of The Chronicles of Narnia

by captaind captaind is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Nov 28 '04
Pros: Funny, insightful, witty, great characters, fun storyline.
Cons: Nothing really.
The Silver Chair is the penultimate book in the Chronicles of Narnia series by C S Lewis. And while the previous book, Voyage of the Dawn Treader is probably still my favourite, The Silver Chair comes extremely close to ...

Of Marshwiggles and Men: The Quest for the Lost Prince

by quasar quasar is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Aug 25 '01
Pros: wide variety of well-developed characters including Puddleglum, action-packed, surprising plot twists
Cons: slightly preachy at times
I've heard it said that the most fantastical of stories often begins in the most ordinary of fashions. I don't remember who said that, but whoever it was may very well have had C.S. Lewis' The Silver Chair in mind at the time.

The Silver Chair, by C. S. Lewis

by cdm72 cdm72 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 08 '08
Pros: A very exciting read.
Cons: Not enough of the Emerald Witch.
A year earlier, Eustace Scrubb traveled with his cousin Edmund and Lucy Pevensie to the land of Narnia where they sailed with King Caspian and his crew aboard the DAWN TREADER, shared adventures, and rescued the banished Narnian Lords. Now, back at ...

A Quest to Free Prince Rilian

by carstairs38 carstairs38 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 04 '07
Pros: Great characters and a strong story
Cons: None worth mentioning
My introduction to fantasy started with this set of seven allegories. Written in the 1950's by C. S. Lewis, each story works as a fantasy adventure. Children from our world are magically summoned to Narnia. Once they arrive, they find that they must ...

"I Believe in Narnia Even if there is No Narnia!"

by bilbopooh bilbopooh is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Books, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 20 '00
Pros: Puddleglum, social commentary, incredible underground scenes
Cons: no Lucy
After reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, I was rather reluctant to plunge into this fourth book of Narnia. I knew that I would find it just as delightful as the previous three, but I was dismayed by the fact that none of the original Pevensie ...

"Nothing wrong with me. Not a frog. Nothing frog with me. I'm a repectabiggle."

by Greatpilgrim Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 12 '08
Pros: the funniest and snarkiest of the Narnia chronicles
Cons: few of the original characters
Most people who arrive at the latter half of the Chronicles of Narnia series and read C.S. Lewis’s The Silver Chair do so, I imagine, either because they have fallen in love with Lewis’s imaginative world or through sheer ...

A great fantasy adventure with few weak spots

by dolphinboy , Jun 07 '09
Pros: Great settings, complex story, good development of main characters
Cons: Side characters under-developed, one aspect of the story doesn't add up, the title
This is the sixth story in the Chronicles of Narnia (see list below) and immediately follows The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, in which we said farewell to Edmund and Lucy Pevensie and met Eustace Scrubb.Not long has passed, on ...

Beware the Green Lady

by basesurge , Jan 13 '09
Pros: Adequate outing in Narnia
Cons: A bit of a flat story. Not up to the better Narnia stories.
The Silver Chair is the fifth journey into C.S. Lewis's fantasy world Narnia. This time out, as before, children from our familiar world are transported there in a time of need. This time the Pevensie kids are out of the picture, they are too old, too ...

Jill Pole and The Silver Chair

by Jellyn , Mar 09 '08
Pros: Girl protagonist is fun. Quest-style plot.
Cons: Rather sexist. Aslan gets on my nerves.
The Silver Chair is the fourth book in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia. That is, if you're reading them in published order, as I am. Chronologically, it's the sixth and second-to-last book. This series, so far, has followed the ...

Faith, Freedom and Friendship

by jenscookie , May 22 '00
Pros: great ideas subtly presented in an exciting adventure
Cons: left wanting to know more background about the villain
The 4th book in the Chronicles of Narnia series begins with Eustace (introduced in Voyage of the Dawn Treader) and Jill Pole (new character) about to face a schoolyard full of bullies at the type of school most hated by C.S. Lewis (who didn't like many...

Worth More Than Gold

by ByronSummers , May 10 '00
Pros: Extremely enchanting story, delightful new characters, great original elements
Cons: It ends
The fourth Chronicle of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, "The Silver Chair", is an imaginative highlight in the middle of this series of 7 books. It marks several firsts among the series, and accomplishes these quite smoothly and...

What is a Marsh Wiggle exactly?

by Sierra_22 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 16 '00
Pros: Great new characters; lots of adventure, magic and drama.
Cons: More complicated than the first book in the series.
In the fourth Narnia book, Lewis introduces the charming Jill Pole and re-introduces the once obnoxious Eustace Clarence Scrubb. These two from our world are the two last people to travel into Narnia in The Last Battle and this is their first trip...

Puddleglum Better Than Pokemon

by anyamashiro , Nov 24 '99
Pros: An enjoyable adventure with unique characters
Cons: Missing the original four characters may disappoint some
The Silver Chair is my favorite Narnia novel. It is a classic fantasy adventure. A full-blown quest with signs to follow as the hero and heroine try to save an enchanted prince from an evil sorceress.

Their assistant on their quest is a...
