The Horse and His Boy

By C. S. Lewis

Give the gift of The Chronicles of Narnia books this Easter and experience all the adventure of C. S. Lewis's epic fantasy series in this latest official edition from HarperCollins.

A mass-market paperback edition of The Horse and His Boy, book three in the classic fantasy series, The Chronicles of Narnia, featuring cover art by Cliff Nielsen and black-and-white interior artwork by the original illustrator of Narnia, Pauline Baynes.

On a desperate journey, two runaways meet and join forces. Though they are only looking to escape their harsh and narrow lives, they soon find themselves at the center of a terrible battle. It is a battle that will decide their fate and the fate of Narnia itself.

The Horse and His Boy is the third book in C. S. Lewis's classic fantasy series, which has been drawing readers of all ages into a magical land where horses talk and destiny awaits for over sixty years. This is a novel that stands on its own, but if you would like to explore more of Narnia, read Prince Caspian, the fourth book in The Chronicles of Narnia.

I'm late to this series but perhaps I'm understanding more of the underlying messages than I would have as a kid.

The whimsy was there but so was the oh so thinly veiled racism😬

Read this to my students and this is the rating they gave it. I would’ve done a 2 probably.

The story was not grabbing me, and I didn’t really care for the characters all that much. It did have some good stuff in it but not enough.

Ugh, this book was so incredibly boring. keeping track of all the names and locations was a chore.
