Amazon.co.uk
Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are mysteriously transported back to Narnia where they discover that it has been hundred's of years since their reign as Kings and Queens of the land ended. Cair Paravel, the castle where they lived, is in ruins and the evil King Miraz has taken charge. Along with their old friend Prince Caspian they race to overthrow the King, calling on the help of Aslan and his trusty follower, Reepicheep the mouse.
Once again we are taken back to the magical lands of Narnia in the clever, ironic and fantastical Prince Caspian, the fourth book in the Chronicles of Narnia. This edition, published in celebration of the centenary of CS Lewis, is a highly collectible addition to any treasured Narnia library. With hand-coloured illustrations by Pauline Baynes exquisitely capturing the pure essence of Narnia, this edition of Prince Caspian will live long in the memory and on the bookshelf. --Susan Harrison -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Taschenbuch .
From School Library Journal
Grade 4-8-Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensey, the heroes and heroines from The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, return in this fourth installment of C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia series. The four children are transported from an English train station to an island in the world of Narnia. Though Narnia has been at peace since the children left, it is now under the control of Wicked King Mirax. The youngsters, along with Aslan the great lion, must help young Prince Caspian restore Narnia's glorious past. This full-cast dramatization adheres closely to the book's text. Actor Paul Scofield is the "storyteller," and other British actors read the character parts. The production features sound effects and background music, and is a more complete version of the story than the BBC audio production (Bantam Doubleday, 1998). Children familiar with the series will enjoy this impressive production.

Beware! The evil, foul-minded people who are publishing these works (The Chronicles of Narnia) have profaned the fantastic writing of C.S. Lewis by rearranging the order of the seven books so as to confuse the reader and steal away some of the magic and wonder by imposing it in a chronological order rather than the artistic one in which it was rendered. Is the horrible time witch at play again or it could be that rascal Screwtape at work? I shake my head sadly at the poor folk who will read these books in the wrong order, actually thinking that perhaps the author meant for them to read Volume Six first. Yes, of course these books come highly recommended but I think it is most important to stress that they should be read in the proper order, which is as follows: 1. The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe 2. Prince Caspian 3. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader 4. The Silver Chair 5. The Horse and His Boy 6. The Magician's Nephew 7. The Last Battle Please, do yourself a favor, if you are reading these books for the first time, read them in the right order.
Format:Taschenbuch
After the high of "Lion, Witch & Wardrobe" and then a quite good "Horse & His Boy", I next turned to Prince Caspian. But I was a little disappointed with this story as it ends just as it is starting to take off.
The four children end up back in Narnia, unexpectedly and suddenly. They wonder why they have been brought back at all until they realise they are in a Narnia they have never seen. They eventually work out that this is Narnia several hundred years after their reign in "Lion, Witch, Wardrobe" and "Horse and His Boy".
The current King of Narnia, Miraz, is an evil man who took power by force. When his wife gives birth to a baby son, a new heir suddenly comes into the picture and his adopted son, Caspian (who was going to be the new King) is suddenly a threat. With the help of his tutor, Caspian escapes and eventually discovers "Old Narnia" - the animals and plants that we know so well from previous stories. Miraz realises there is a rebellion in the making here so he dispatches his army to crush Caspian and the "Old Narnians". Caspian blows on the magic horn for help - and this summons the four children back into Narnia.
But just as things are getting interesting, the story is suddenly over and you kind of feel deflated and perhaps a little cheated. There is also a little bit of a "dark side" to this story and maybe not all of it is suitable for children (murdering your enemy by stabbing him in the back with a sword?). I can easily see though why the next Narnia movie will be Prince Caspian as the potential is there for a lot of CGI-animated battle scenes!
A good enough story to continue the series and the standard of the writing IS very high. I just didn't get into this one as much as the previous ones, that's all.

This is the fourth (chronologically) Chronicle of Narnia (after The Magician's Nephew; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; The Horse and His Boy, and before The Voyage of the Dawn Treader; The Silver Chair; The Last Battle).
In this volume we meet again with the four heroes from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe: Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. A year after coming back to England, they're waiting on the station platform for the trains that will take them back to boarding school after the summer holidays, when suddenly, they're transported into another world.
It is soon apparent that they've landed on an island. Driven by hunger, and not knowing when they might go back to their world, they start exploring the place. All they can find is apples from trees that have overgrown an ancient castle ruin. But as they explore these old stones, they realize they're none other than those of Cair Paravel, the palace where they used to dwell when they were Kings and Queens of Narnia. Why is it in such a poorly state?
Later, they will save a Dwarf who will tell them how and why they were summoned back to Narnia, and help the young prince Caspian escape from his tyrannic uncle Miraz, the usurper of the throne.
This booked started out well. I was excited at the prospect of exploring the old ruins of Cair Paravel, looking for treasures hidden under centuries of vines and ivy. But then the story's tone changed, and it became very similar to the previous volumes. I'm not against consistency, but I was beginning to build magical images of haunted castles and suddenly they all collapsed and faded, and I felt a little frustrated.
