A fine enough work, not as boring as the worst in the series, but also not the most memorable.

Definitely not my favorite of the series but good nonetheless

4.5 stars. I love getting to see the other lands in this world. One of my favorites. I love that we get to see a glimpse of the high kings and queens during their reign. This a colorful and fun read.

Would have been perfectly fine with not reading this, rather listening to this audio, out of the series. I understand it happens during the reign of the Pevensies, but just no. I was extremely bored and should have returned it early on Libby

I love returning to the Golden Age of Narnia and seeing this world expand even further, but I especially love seeing Edmund, Susan and Lucy again, even as background characters!

Of all the books in the series this one serves as my favorite for including the original kids from the wardrobe while also being a much more individual story compared to the other books.

I love that Lucy, Edmund  Peter & Susan makes an appearance in this book.

A story about a taking horse and a boy who finds his identity.

Compared to other books it's not my favourite
