I think that Jill and Eustace are the most likable protagonists of the series (even though homegirl is an attempted murderer). And Puddlegum makes for a fun quest companion with his dreary outlook. I’m not sure how the reading experience is for everyone, but as someone who was raised Christian, I do find Lewis’s reimagining of biblical events to be funny. Most entertaining propaganda ever.

The best of these I’ve read so far. Much better plotted than The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, with fun new characters and a unique swampy setting compared to the others

I like this quite a bit more than Prince Caspian and Voyage. I found the story more cohesive and flowed better than Voyage and more interesting than Prince. I enjoyed Eustace and Jill as characters quite a lot. I liked Puddleglum as a companion and think his interactions with the children were quite amusing.
