    About this audiobook

    The fourth in the series of the classic fantasy tales – The Chronicles of Narnia. A complete and unabridged edition of this enduringly popular children’s book.

    “Look sharp!” shouted Edmund. “All catch hands and keep together. This is magic – I can tell by the feeling. Quick!”

    Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy are sitting on a station platform when they sense the magic beginning again. Suddenly they are pulled back to the land of Narnia.

    Evil King Miraz and his army can only mean trouble for Narnia, and Prince Caspian, his nephew and the rightful heir to the throne, fears for his safety and the future of his country. He blows the Great Horn in desperation, summoning Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy to help with his difficult task – that of saving Narnia before its freedom is lost forever.

    C. S. Lewis

    Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day. He was a Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Oxford University until 1954, when he was unanimously elected to the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, a position he held until his retirement. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics The Chronicles of Narnia. To date, the Narnia books have sold over 100 million copies and have been transformed into three major motion pictures. Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) fue uno de los intelectuales más importantes del siglo veinte y podría decirse que fue el escritor cristiano más influyente de su tiempo. Fue profesor particular de literatura inglesa y miembro de la junta de gobierno en la Universidad Oxford hasta 1954, cuando fue nombrado profesor de literatura medieval y renacentista en la Universidad Cambridge, cargo que desempeñó hasta que se jubiló. Sus contribuciones a la crítica literaria, literatura infantil, literatura fantástica y teología popular le trajeron fama y aclamación a nivel internacional. C. S. Lewis escribió más de treinta libros, lo cual le permitió alcanzar una enorme audiencia, y sus obras aún atraen a miles de nuevos lectores cada año. Sus más distinguidas y populares obras incluyen Las Crónicas de Narnia, Los Cuatro Amores, Cartas del Diablo a Su Sobrino y Mero Cristianismo.

      Out the corner of my eye, I caught sight of Euan. And heard him, too. He was toppling over in a mess of tree roots, and there was an accompanying mumbled grunt of pain. We’d been soaking wet, cold and exhausted for hours, and it had finally caught up

      A true masterpiece of a book. Loved by young and old
    • 5/5
      People are so generally down on poor old Lewis these days that it's hard to remember sometimes that he wrote a jolly good story and that's why these books are still in print. I reread this after we'd watched the film and was amused to be reminded that the Telmarines were not, originally, swarthy and heavily-accented (= Hollywood-bad), but English and rather common … which would, I daresay, also be bad. Worth noting: Telmarine revisionist history ("duller than the truest bit of history you ever read, and more untrue than the most exciting adventure story"), Nikabrik's foolish contention that the enemy of one's enemy is one's friend – not such a good idea when you're talking about the White Witch – and, of course, the almost-Bacchanal, where you can almost hear Lewis pulling up in his head: "Whoa, wait a moment – children's book, children's book …"
    • 5/5
      Another great book in the Narnia series :) I loved it! It was interesting seeing what had happened to Narnia over the hundreds of years that Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy weren't there, and I loved Prince Caspian's character. I didn't particularly like Susan's character in this book--she seemed like she was too "old and mature" for Narnia. Although the ending seemed a little abrupt, Lewis tied everything up well. I have to say though that it is sad that Peter and Susan won't be coming back to Narnia anymore, but I still look forward to seeing Edmund and Lucy in the last three books.
    • 4/5
      The reader is great. I liked the story more, and I dunno if I got used to Aslan or if there's less of him in this one, but it didn't bother me quite as much. 3,5 stars
    • 3/5
      Prince Caspian is the second novel in the Chronicles of Narnia series. It brings back many familiar characters from The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. It's a nice continuation to the previous story, however it relies heavily on previous knowledge. A light, charming read for children who enjoy the freedom of imagination.
    • 5/5
      The audiobook was cool and I really liked the book.
    • 5/5
      Another great book by C.S. Lewis alot of action in this one for those who are looking for it but a great behind it as always, a wonderful book, and one I recommend to everyone.
    • 3/5
      Not quite as good as the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe, but it was interesting to see what they're working the new movie from.
    • 4/5
      I'm still enchanted with this series, but I've only just finished Book #2, so we'll see how I feel once I'm done with #7. I had no knowledge of any book in the series other than "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," so this is proving to be quite fun. I love how Lewis gracefully weaved in the story of Prince Caspian and then brought the children into that story line. I keep expecting things to get a lot darker and the gruesome bits to be a lot more graphic, probably because I've read too many contemporary dystopian future/alternate universe YA and children's books, but I also feel like Lewis' writing style leaves more to the imagination.

      In case I haven't mentioned it before, I'm reading the books in the order that Lewis wrote and published them, not based on the chronology of Narnia.
    • 5/5
      This was a great book to add to the series of "The Chronicles of Narnia".
    • 5/5
      Great series, loved these as a kid.
    • 4/5
      Sometimes subtitled "The return to Narnia" this 2nd in the series tells of Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy's summoning to Narnia where a great deal has changed since they ruled and they have to help set a country to rights... Don't watch the film version, it's a travesty...
    • 5/5
      The second book in the series, the story follows on from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
    • 2/5
      Prince Caspian is good. It’s about this prince who has to flee form his castle because his uncle wants to kill him. The prince runs away and hides in the forest of Narnia, where he meets some Narnians and they give him food and shelter. Prince Caspian needs help so he calls Peter, Edmund, Lucy and Susan for help. I liked this book I thought it was good because I like these types of stories so I really liked it. What I didn’t like about it was it can get a little slow but overall it was really good.
    • 3/5
      Prince Caspian is a very heroic book, which would lend itself perfectly for a movie adaptation. It is all about a battle and you can't imagine that the good side will win, but of course, as in all of the books, the good side will win.
    • 4/5
      I really liked how this book had the same characters in it as The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. I think that made it more enticing for me to read. I enjoyed the fact that in this world, the children had previously been Kings and Queens. I think that, if I were to read this to my class, it would be fun to have the kids make up a land where they ruled too. I think this is a great series to read aloud as a novel study because it has so much potential for the students to think critically and to get imaginative!
    • 5/5
      Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy return to Narnia centuries after their departure to help Prince Caspian wrest the kingdom out of the hands of his tyrant uncle. A very cute story with a wonderful moral. I look forward to reading the rest of the series. I’m reading them in publication order, so this is the second book.
    • 5/5
      This book has turned out to one of my favorites of the Narnia series. I couldn't put the book down while reading it. I loved visiting Narnia with Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy and seeing Narnia through their eyes. It is a good read.
    • 5/5
      my personal fav of the book series
    • 3/5
      Continuation of the Narnia tales. Aslan as Christ. Lewis continues to convey Christian themes to children.
    • 4/5
      I enjoyed this book but maybe not as much as I would have if I hadn't recently watched the movie.
    • 3/5
      A pretty disappointing follow up to "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe" (Which I didn't find to be that great a book to begin with.) There's plenty of Biblical imagery for the Bible Scholars, but the final battle lacks any drama, and Lewis seems to wrap the story up too quickly. It's O.K., but not great.
    • 4/5
      I read the first book in the Narnia Chronicles when I was in 4th grade. I didn't see much in the story then, but I liked it. I've had the seven books to the chronicle for years, but I just had to read the second one before the movie comes out. It was quite full of religious symbolism as in the first book, and a bit more down to earth as you can get in Narnia. All in all, it was a good and quick read.
    • 3/5
      Thank Aslan for the return of Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy!
    • 5/5
      This and Horse and His Boy are my two favorites among the Narnia stories, partly because they happen more inside Narnia toNarnians.
    • 3/5
      A little over the top.
    • 4/5
      Prince Caspian was, at one point, my favourite of the books. (The ones that have never enjoyed that status are The Magician's Nephew, The Silver Chair and The Last Battle.) I don't know where it comes now -- there are some gorgeous bits, like the dancing of the trees. There's nothing about Calormen, which is a bonus, and there's plenty of talking animals and touches from classic mythology.

      (I know I keep talking about Tolkien and Lewis together, but it really is fascinating to see how they do similar things differently and how their similar backgrounds produce two stories that are so similar and so different at once. E.g. there's plenty of Christianity in Tolkien, without his work being overtly, intentionally allegorical.)
    • 4/5
      The fourth book in the Chronicles of Narnia series sees all four of the Pevensie children return to Narnia, called there to aid Prince Caspian in his bid to claim the throne of Narnia from his uncle, Miraz.Although I enjoyed the characters and the continuing events of the Narnian universe, I didn't feel this was the strongest entry in the series. The plot seemed lighter than in the previous books and there was no real character development to make up for it. That being said, I still found it to be a good read.
    • 4/5
      I really liked this one, It was exciting and really fun to read. Can't wait for the movie!
    • 5/5
      One of the key points in this novel seems to me to be the experience Lucy has with Aslan - only she can see him, and no one else believes her. What does she do? In terms of Christianity, many find themselves in the same place. As a believer, do I follow Him, even when no one believes me? Even when the "safe" path may be to go along with the others? The story is engaging, with a mix of urgency and gaiety that curiously works together and actually provides a sense of perspective. My kids are enjoying the read aloud.
