Synopsis

The Chronicles of Narnia series has sold over 85 million copies worldwide and introduced people of all ages to the central doctrines of Christianity. Anticipating the December 2010 Walden Media/20th Century Fox release of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, this book guides readers through the third novel of C. S. Lewis's classic series.

As he did in the successful Inside Narnia and Inside Prince Caspian, Devin Brown takes readers through The Voyage of the Dawn Treader chapter by chapter, illuminating the features of C. S. Lewis's writing, providing supplemental information on Lewis's life and other books, offering comments and opinions from other Lewis scholars, and uncovering the work's rich meanings. Longtime fans of C. S. Lewis and those who have met him through the movies will want to read this book.

"If Edmund were to finally receive a belated gift from Father Christmas, he would be lucky if it were a copy of my good friend Devin Brown's book. Like Lewis, Devin is somebody who adores great stories and effortlessly weaves them throughout his book. As a result, upon finishing Devin's book the reader is hungry not only to read more of Lewis, but to read more great literature. This book will surely be banned at Experiment House."--Michael Flaherty, president of Walden Media
