About this listen
The second and most widely known in the series of the classic fantasy tales – The Chronicles of Narnia. Read by the unforgettable Sir Michael Hordern.
“This is the land of Narnia,” said the Faun, “where we are now. And you – you have come from the wild woods of the west?”
“I – I got in through the wardrobe in the spare room,” said Lucy.
Lucy steps into the Professor’s wardrobe – but steps out again into a snowy forest. She’s stumbled upon the magical world of Narnia, land of unicorns, centaurs, fauns… and the wicked White Witch, who terrorises all. Lucy soon realises that Narnia, and in particular Aslan, the great Lion, needs her help if the country’s creatures are ever going to be free again…

Not enough chapters
I really enjoyed the book but I don't understand why the audio book only has 2 chapters but the actual book has 17 chapters. honestly this is one of the best books that I have ever read/listened to. I am a big Harry Potter fan and have read all of the books and that big battle at the end was extremely similar to the battle of Hogwarts wich makes me wonder if C.S. Lewis got inspiration from that. Overall I loved the experience of listening to this book and am actually writing this review after my 4th time listening to the book and I only got it yesterday!

Don't fall in the trap! I wasted my credit
I wasn't able to hear the story. But at least now my nightmares have a soundtrack. It is not even the full book. Just don't do it.

So disappointed
Sir Michael Hordern, Oh wonderful. He is!
The thing that spoils this recording is that dreadful music. I didn’t mind as an introduction but PLEASE NOT when I want to listen to a story! I certainly would not give it to a child to listen too. I am very disappointed in this recording.

Warning: abridged version.
Very disappointed to discover that this is an abridged version of the novel, after I have wasted my one credit for this month purchasing the audiobook. There was no indication in the description that the audiobook would be abridged. I see now that the image does say ‘abridged’ at the bottom, but it is so blurry that I didn’t notice it. Very frustrating.

I wanted to enjoy it more, as I enjoyed the film.
The story itself was very basic, explaining everything as it went. CS.Lewis sacrificed so many opportunities for amazing story telling for explaining the deep meaning or affect a character has on the storyline.
The music in the background is also very frustrating, and makes listening to this tedious. it also occasionally becomes louder than Sir Michael Hordern, and so missed parts of what he said.
Unfortunately, the film is superior to the book in this case.
(This is also the same for the rest of the books in the series)

How do they skip sooo many pages
When i was reading it, it was sckiping way to many pages for me to catch up with so make sure to read with out the audio book for some bits. It was really interesting but Michael was saying the wrong word with some sentences, and it in 2 chapters when there is 18 chapters
