The long flashback to Caspian and the amount of time they spend traipsing through the woods makes the pacing really weird on this one but damn CS Lewis went off with "the Pevensies return a year later to find that 1300 years have passed and their kingdom is both terribly familiar and terribly unfamiliar" of it all

***3 1/2 STARS***
I've liked this one the best so far. It was really cool and interesting to hear all about Caspian's story. This book felt a lot different from the others, but it's difficult to describe how. Like, The Horse and His Boy was a different setting and everything, but it still felt part of Narnia. This felt very different from that. I liked it though. It wasn't perfect and there were a lot of loose ends, but it was good.

En la versión Narniana de Hamlet, tenemos a los Pevensie ayudando a Caspian a derrotar al rey Miraz. En esta épica tenemos el desarrollo de los personajes, como Susan empieza a cuestionar las cosas que pasan (denotando que está dejando de creer en Narnia) y también nos introducen a personajes memorables como Reepicheep.
I wonder: If I read it when I was a child, would I have given it 5 stars?
The nicest part about this book for me was the world building aspect, even though it was scarce, it was better than nothing and added just enough texture to the Narnian lore to keep me interested in reading on.
One thing I found particularly unappealing about this novel was the constant barrage of sexist tropes aimed at Susan and Lucy. While I understand that that was the type of posh children's speak of the era, it does get a little bit grating and whether those where his views or not, it does make you question the authors morals, but I'll wait until reading [The Screwtape Letters|8130077] before passing any judgement on that front.
Besides that, there's not a whole lot to say about this book that I haven't already mentioned in the reviews of the preceding books in [The Chronicles Of Narnia|11127]. They're easy reads with a little bit of Christian morality that keep things interesting.

En este cuarto tomo de Las crónicas de Narnia seguimos dos historias, la de los cuatro hermanos Pevensie que regresan a Narnia y, aunque para ellos ha pasado un año, allá han transcurrido 1300 años, en el intertanto, el príncipe Caspian lucha por su corona, pues Narnia está ahora sometida a los telmarinos, a quienes dirige el malvado rey Miraz.
Al igual que en los libros anteriores, vemos el camino que deben recorrer los personajes para llegar a su destino, el cual es sin dudas, uno en el que tuvieron que poner todo de su parte pues pasaron por muchas adversidades que finalmente lograron superar.
En este tomo es en donde realmente me di cuenta de que los hermanos ya son más grandes y que sus acciones son las de un adulto que a veces actúa de formas misteriosas, los sentí tan sabios y eso me provocó una gran nostalgia. Disfruté de sus aventuras, de las del príncipe Caspian, me encantó conocer a todos los animales parlantes de la nueva Narnia y me encariñe con todos y cada uno de ellos, desde el pequeño y valiente ratón Reepicheep hasta los grandes y tiernos Osos Barrigudos. Narnia es una saga llena de aventuras que te hacen recordar lo que es la magia para los niños, para mi, la más pura y sin dudas una que no se compara con ninguna otra.
