The Chronicles of Narnia

By: C. S. Lewis

Narrated by: Alex Jennings

The unabridged audio edition of The Horse and His Boy, book three in the classic fantasy series, The Chronicles of Narnia, narrated by renowned actor Alex Jennings.

On a desperate journey, two runaways meet and join forces. Though they are only looking to escape their harsh and narrow lives, they soon find themselves at the center of a terrible battle. It is a battle that will decide their fate and the fate of Narnia itself.

The Horse and His Boy is the third book in C.S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia a series that has become part of the canon of classic literature, drawing readers of all ages into a magical land with unforgettable characters for over fifty years. This is a novel that stands on its own, but if you would like to return to Narnia, listen to Prince Caspian, the fourth book in The Chronicles of Narnia.

Excellent Reading the only entirely Narnia book.

The performance of this story is perhaps the best of all the fine readings in the Narnia series, even though the reader is not quite so famous as some of the others.

The book is interesting in that it takes place entirely in Narnia, with not a single scene in this world. We get to see several of the Pevensey children as adults, an thus near the end of their first Narian adventures. This is the work in which Lewis introduces Calormene, the foil of Narnia in that other world. It does not worship to true god, but a false one—and yet, like Narnia, there are attractive and virtuous people in that land. The sorting of good and bad comes in the final version of the series, The Last Battle, which cannot be understood without the visit to Calormene provided here.

Loved it!

A remarkable adventure. Everything worked out. It was awesome. Always a great journey. As in all the stories Aslan is there. The narrator was great.

Loved the Story.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Alex Jennings?

Not my favorite narrator, but he did a good job. I gave him three stars because I have been spoiled by Jim Dale.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Neither. It's an entertaining book but as I have said before, character depth in the Narnia books is lacking.

Any additional comments?

I love listening to audiobooks during my hour long commute to work. These keep me sane and entertained!

My favorite book

The themes and characters of this book are just perfect. Shasta is the narnian (arkhenlander) I most identify with.
I WAS THE LION YOU DO NOT REMEMBER.
a must read if you like narnia. Should be read after the lion the witch and the wardrobe.

This was a really good story and a story teller does a really good job at the voices add telling the story in good pattern

This book was narrated very well. The narrator used a wide range of voices and is very talented that way. This has been my favorite of the Narnia books!
