 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.

A boy and a talking horse share an adventurous and dangerous journey to Narnia to warn of invading barbarians. No library descriptions found. |

The two have many adventures, specifically with the Tisroc who is trying to invade Narnia and marry his son to Susan Pevensie, Queen of Narnia.
The story is quick with several battles. The small twist at the end is wholesome and heart-warming. Aslan does come in with the lesson at the end, making everyone regret their warmongering and foul attitudes - he transforms a Tisroc prince into an ass because that's what he's acted like throughout the story.
