The Narnia Chronicles, first published in 1950, have been and remain some of the most enduringly popular children's books ever published. The best known, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, has been translated into 29 languages! "Look sharp!" shouted Edmund. "All catch hands and keep together. This is magic - I can tell by the feeling!" Prince Caspian is in terrible danger when his wicked uncle, King Miraz, decides to get rid of the young heir to the throne. In desperation, Caspian blows the magic horn, calling on Peter, Susan, Lucy and Edmund in Narnia's hour of need. This is the fourth adventure in the exciting Chronicles of Narnia.

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 .

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.

This is my second time through Narnia as I read it out loud to, and have it read aloud to me by, my children. It has been thirty years since my first experience, and I have to point out that back in the 60's, the books were ordered as follows: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; Prince Caspian; The Voyage of the Dawn Treader; The Silver Chair; A Horse and His Boy; The Magician's Nephew; The Last Battle. I am unsure why the series has been re-issued in a different order. It is more pleasing to be introduced to Narnia through the eyes of the four children, and then discovery the mystery of its making in book Six (Magician's Nephew), than the other way around. On to the book. Prince Caspian contains the weakest coupling of the real and imaginary worlds that Lewis attempted. The linkage between the Children and Narnia suffers greatly from the time differentials involved . . . however, the characters grow steadily, the plot moves at a pleasing pace, and the world is revealed much as an onion is pealed, layer by layer, by use of a "story within a story." The harsh realities of politics, life and death are not overlooked, as many PC books today tend to do, yet the battle scenes do not succumb to graphic description as is done in far too many stories today, and certainly on TV. Narnia's magic retains the critical element of wonder and scarcity, though I must say that the talking beasts are trying at times. I guess it is harder to suspend disbelief as an adult than as a child-- my loss perhaps.... Lesen Sie weiter... ›

PRINCE CASPIAN: THE RETURN TO NARNIA picks up just where THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE leaves off--even though it covers events hundreds of years later!
It has been hundreds of years since the Prenseives (Kings and Queens Peter, Susan, Edmud, and Lucy) came into Narnia and helped Aslan, the noble Lion, rid Narnia of the White Witch. Now, as they return to the enchanted land, it is not a return of the Witch they have to deal with, but a new problem for their land, and that is as follows:
In the many years since they have been gone from Narnia, a false and unjust king has taken the throne, and all the magical beings, enchanted talking trees, and other magicfilled friends of Lucy and her family have disappeared from vision, and Narnia is now as England is for the Prensieves--a man's country!
Now it is up to the High King Peter and the other Prensieves to aid Narnia once more by putting the rightful king--Caspian The Tenth--on the throne and restoring the magic in their wonderful land.
All in all, the plot is as best as ever, the charecters as charming as in all the other books, and the events more suprising than ever before! PRINCE CASPIAN makes a supurb forth Narnian adventure, (and it is) just as entertaining if you read it apart from the other CHRONICLES OF NARNIA by the wonderfully creative C.S. Lewis.

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.
