Publisher's Summary
The Narnia Chronicles, first published in 1950, have been and remain some of the most enduringly popular children’s books ever published. The best known, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, has been translated into 29 languages!
“It’s a magic wardrobe. There’s a wood inside it, and it’s snowing! Come and see,” begged Lucy.
Lucy has stumbled upon a marvellous land of fauns and centaurs, nymphs and talking animals. But soon she discovers that it is ruled by the cruel White Witch, and can only be freed by Aslan, the great Lion, and four children…
This is the second adventure in the exciting Chronicles of Narnia.
Critic Reviews
“Forget Simba. There’s a new lion in the Magic Kingdom… Long before J.K. Rowling dreamed up Harry Potter, Lewis was busy with his seven book series.”
E! Online
“Like the ‘Rings’ cycle… the seven Narnia books have a long and loyal following.”
The Herald (U.K.)
“Narnia offers huge scope for a profitable film franchise… fantasy is currently the toast of Hollywood.”
The Guardian (U.K.)
“…a big, live action movie franchise to help spark new merchandising lines and theme-park attractions.”
Los Angeles Times

great book, terrible audio
As others have said the sound is very odd on this book. the narrator suddenly gets very loud, then super quiet. I wish audible would read these reviews and remix the audio tracks

Brilliant classic story, average narration
One of my favourite books from childhood. Millions of children have been transported over the years, but Michael York doesn't nail it in my opinion. Sound levels go up and down - but the main thing is his weird, almost patronising intonation. And his Aslan voice is silly. Pity.

Always my favorite
I have loved this book since I was a kid, and continue to live it even to this day. C.S. Lewis always is and will be one of the kings of fantasy. Michael York's voice accompanies this narration so well.

One of the Best Books Ever
A best-ever family read-aloud, a beautiful allegory of The One True Story. Such beauty in the written words and in the performance.
