The Silver Chair

A mass-market paperback edition of The Silver Chair, book six 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 the series, Pauline Baynes.

Through dangers untold and caverns deep and dark, a noble band of friends is sent to rescue a prince held captive. But their mission to Underland brings them face-to-face with an evil more beautiful and more deadly than they ever expected.

The Silver Chair is the sixth book in C. S. Lewis's classic fantasy series. For over sixty years, it has been drawing readers of all ages into a magical land where giants wreak havoc and enchantment rules. This is a complete stand-alone read, but if you want to discover what happens in the final days of Narnia, read The Last Battle, the seventh and concluding book in The Chronicles of Narnia.

Solid book! I liked having Eustace back, and the new characters were a welcome addition. The story overall was pretty good, not great. I thought the stuff later in the book was pretty interesting with where it went but overall it felt a little too quick and not as engaging as some others.

I had forgotten how wonderful this adventure story was! It was so good and imaginative! Kudos to Mr. Lewis!

Picking up where I left off with The Chronicles of Narnia. It's about time. Ugh.

I didn't get as involved in this story as I would've liked. It just didn't grab my attention like some of the others. I don't think anything can compare with my love for The Lion. the Witch and the Wardrobe. 

It wasn't bad, I just wish there was a little more.

Well, biscuits and butterflies!! Not my favorite, but who doesn't like a Marsh-wiggle named Puddleblum.
