Title: The Magician’s Nephew

Author: C.S. Lewis

Genre: Christian Lit., Children’s Fantasy

My Rating:  ★★★★

How would you want to delve into a different world from ours filled with such great wonders and then come home  as you please after your tale-gripping adventure,  nuzzle with your pillow thinking tomorrow you’re going to have it again or maybe much more? All you need are 2 different rings and you’re set.

The Magician’s Nephew is a prequel of the series The Chronicles of Narnia. It begins with Uncle Andrew’s experiment with his magic rings causing  Digory and Polly to be lost in a world far too distant and exciting all the same from ours. Then there how it all begins; how the witch came into being, the founding of Narnia and how it connects to our world.

The story which resembles quite a lot of what’s in the Bible through Lewis’ adept ways took it into another level. I have certainly enjoyed reading it as much as I have enjoyed Uncle Andrew’s character in the story. Lewis clearly writing everything in the book did it without giving so much away. 

The witch, the beautiful Narnia, I have seen it all for I have traveled along with them. I need no rings. I have it all inside of me. I may have turned the last page of the book but never it would end there. It’s only the beginning of the many great adventures which are yet to be taken. Narnia; it has now become a part of me.

4 stars for an enjoyable read! :)
