The Silver Chair - C. S. Lewis
The Silver Chair by C. S. Lewis is Book 6 of The Chronicles of Narnia, a timeless children's fantasy adventure filled with magic, courage, friendship and an unforgettable quest through the mysterious world of Narnia. Featuring original illustrations by Pauline Baynes, this classic paperback follows Eustace Scrubb and Jill Pole as they are sent by Aslan to find a missing prince and uncover a dangerous enchantment.
When Eustace Scrubb returns to Narnia, he is joined by his schoolmate Jill Pole.
Their arrival brings an urgent mission from Aslan: they must find Prince Rilian, the lost son of King Caspian, who disappeared years earlier while searching for the creature responsible for his mother's death.
Aslan gives Jill a series of signs that must guide them on their journey.
But remembering and recognising those signs proves far more difficult than expected.
Joined by the wonderfully gloomy but deeply loyal Puddleglum the Marsh-wiggle, Eustace and Jill travel north through wild and dangerous lands. Their quest leads them past giants and ancient ruins before carrying them beneath the surface of the world into the strange kingdom of Underland.
There they encounter a mysterious and beautiful ruler whose magic may hold the key to Prince Rilian's disappearance.
C. S. Lewis combines classic fantasy, adventure and powerful themes of courage, loyalty and resisting deception in one of the most atmospheric books in the Narnia series.
The journey into Underland gives The Silver Chair a darker and more mysterious tone than many earlier Narnia adventures, while Puddleglum remains one of the series' most memorable and beloved characters.
For readers searching for Chronicles of Narnia books in order, C. S. Lewis books, classic children's fantasy, magical adventure stories or books like The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Silver Chair is an essential part of the Narnia collection.
As Book 6 of 7, it follows The Voyage of the Dawn Treader in HarperCollins' current reading order and leads toward the final Narnia adventure, The Last Battle.
