So I finally finished all the books in the Chronicles of Narnia series. I read them in 'reading order' and not publication order. When Lewis wrote The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe - he never expected to write any other books - that's why if you actually want to read the series you should start with The Magician's Nephew.
Anyway - I decided to read the books because I was tired of waiting to watch the movies in order to figure out what happens! Yes, these are children's books so they're really easy reads. Most of the time I was doing one book a day....but the stories in each of them are really great. Lewis' descriptions of places, people, and emotions are quite intense - especially in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. I only wish I had read these when I was younger...but back then I was into "Island of the Blue Dolphins" and the "Boxcar Children Series".
