Loading... The Horse and His Boy (1954)by C. S. Lewis
  tauruseducation | Jun 5, 2013 |  After re-reading this book, I fell in love with it even more. What's weird about it was it made me cry. I really loved the part where Shasta was riding through the fog with Aslan beside him. It really struck a chord me and made me realize of God's love. The Narnia series will be one of the first books I will make my children read. This was really one of the best book in the series. (  ) krizia_lazaro | May 24, 2013 | A delicious classic, suitable for children of any age - including adults. The cultural flavor of a fairy tale or a medieval romance, with suspense and adventure, this novel can be read separately from the Narnia series, though I can't imagine wanting to skip the other volumes. Chivalry and perfidy, courage and cowardice, and a story that illustrates the fundamental importance of character - and that character is a choice. (  ) WetheReaders | Apr 30, 2013 | Out of the all the books in the Chronicles of Narnia series I have read so far, this was my least favorite. I kept getting confused by the various characters' names and had a tough time staying interested in this story. It wasn't a terrible book, but it also wasn't great. It just wasn't as compelling as some of the other books in the series. (  ) SparklePonies | Apr 29, 2013 | This is the one that kept me from making it through the series all of those other times. There just wasn't the same engagement with the characters. I found that 3/4 of the way through the book I was actually enjoying it though. ( ) Ameliapei | Apr 18, 2013 |
 In the opinion of this admirer, "The Horse and His Boy" is relatively unispired. It does not glow as much as the incomparable first book of the series, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." It has not as much gay satire and plain excitement as several of the others. Just possibly the Narnian fields are suffering from overcropping, and could stand lying fallow while other fields are put back into cultivation.

"I could have sworn that horse spoke." Bree, the talking horse, has been kidnapped from Narnia, and longs to return. Shasta, on the verge of being sold into slavery, decides to run away with him.
