Summary

The fourth in the series of the classic fantasy tales – The Chronicles of Narnia. A complete and unabridged edition of this enduringly popular children’s book.

“Look sharp!” shouted Edmund. “All catch hands and keep together. This is magic – I can tell by the feeling. Quick!”

Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are sitting on a station platform when they sense the magic beginning again. Suddenly they are pulled back to the land of Narnia.

Evil King Miraz and his army can only mean trouble for Narnia, and Prince Caspian, his nephew and the rightful heir to the throne, fears for his safety and the future of his country. He blows the Great Horn in desperation, summoning Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy to help with his difficult task – that of saving Narnia before its freedom is lost forever.

I love listening to my books last thing in bed, it's wonderful to have a story read to you. But the music between the chapters adds nothing and becomes irritating and distracting after a while. I also hated Ms Redgrave's pronunciation of Narnia; she continually said "Narn-ya, like Kenya. but surely it should be Narn-i-a!

cut the between chapters music please

This book was a childhood favourite and I still love the story, though many parts haven't aged well.

It's just a shame they picked this narrator - many of her pronunciations were irritatingly weird and she put on some odd voices for the children. And the less said about Doctor Cornelius and his Amazing Travelling Accent the better 😂

Great story spoiled by odd narration

such a great connection to previous Narnia story, adding new adventures with the same characters and then adding new features

wonderful story telling by C S Lewis

Would you listen to Prince Caspian: The Chronicles of Narnia, Book 2 again? Why?

Yes, because you're left wondering at the end of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe if there's more to come and you're looking forward, when you start this book, to the next journey to Narnia.

What did you like best about this story?

It's an excellent plot with many years having elapsed sinced the children were last in Narnia but they were still remembered by the majority of the Narnians. Also, there was plenty of underground work going on, such as the Nurse and Doctor Cornelius briefing Caspian about the old days.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The scene where the children realised they'd gone the wrong way and had no choice but to go Aslan's way.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There are always emotional parts in the Narnia books.

Any additional comments?

If you want plenty of adventure with lessons to be learnt along the way, the Chronicles of Narnia is probably the best series for that sort of thing. At the end of each book, you just want more.
