"Chronicles Of Narnia" By Clive Lewis
Fantasy-fairy-tale cycle Clive Stapleton Lewis, created in the 1950-ies, consists of seven books. While they were written not in chronological order.
The first was published the book "the lion, the witch and the wardrobe", tells about the adventures of four children from the Pevensie family, trapped in a magical world – Narnia. It was followed by "Prince Caspian" and "voyage of the Dawn, or swimming on the edge" - the continuing adventures of the same characters. In the next story "the Silver chair" the main characters be the cousin of the Pevensie children, Eustace and his friend Jill. "The horse and his boy" - essentially, a spin-off to the rest of the cycle and the only book in which the main characters are natives of the world of Narnia. This is followed by the book "magician's Nephew", which tells about the history of the events of all the other stories. In "the Last battle" the world of Narnia ends its existence. This die in the regular world, the Pevensie children (excluding Susan), Jill, Eustace, and also the heroes of "the Magician's Nephew". They all fall into "the true Narnia" - the equivalent to the Christian Paradise.
In fact, "the Chronicles of Narnia" are very religious cycle.
Lewis set himself the task to put the basic principles of Christianity in an allegorical form that is not only affordable but also fun for kids. The result is a really talented Saga, remaining a classic of children's fantasy to this day.
