Book Reviews of Inside Prince Caspian: A Guide to Exploring the Return to Narnia
Book Review: A Far Different Narnia Than Before
Summary: 5 Stars
C.S. Lewis is my favorite author of all time and the Chronicles of Narnia are my favorite books of all time. Like many fans of Lewis, I was excited about the May 2008 release of PRINCE CASPIAN. PRINCE CASPIAN is a darker and much deeper book than the first book in the series, THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE. Having read PRINCE CASPIAN several times, I wanted to know even more about the book, especially with the release of the motion picture. When I heard about Devin Brown's INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN, it sounded just like the type of work I was looking for and I decided to check it out.
INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN is an in-depth look at Lewis' PRINCE CASPIAN. The book is divided into 15 chapters, one for each one of the chapters of Lewis' book. INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN also includes an introduction where the author explains how he came to write the book, makes a brief statement about the movie version of THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE, a statement about why the books are not allegories, and the author's opinion on which order the books should be read. Each of the fifteen chapters following the introduction take examine the chapter they are examining in detail. References to scripture, history, Lewis' life, and other influences upon the text and what the text means are discussed in detail.
Academically, INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN is a book of literary analysis. Many people think of literary analysis of being boring, dull, confusing, and not very exciting. That is not the case with INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN. The book really makes Lewis' original story come to life even more and illustrates why the story is still relevant and popular today.
If you enjoy PRINCE CASPIAN, I highly suggest reading INSIDE PRINCE CASPIAN. After reading it, you might find for yourself, as Lucy did with Aslan, that the story grows much bigger than when you first read it.
Summary of Inside Prince Caspian: A Guide to Exploring the Return to Narnia
