5.0

 As someone who absolutely loves the Narnia movies, I’ve been eager to dive into the books for a while. This is the second book I’ve read after The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (I’m reading them in a different order), and I’m thrilled with how the story continues. 

In this book, we meet Prince Caspian, a young prince who, with the help of High King Peter, recovers his rightful position as the true King of Narnia. Together, they bring the Old Narnia creatures out of hiding and restore the land to its former glory. 

It's a beautifully written book that is easy to follow, and even though there’s less action than in the movie, the key events are still well represented. The themes of bravery, friendship, and standing up for what’s right really shine through. 

I highly recommend it to anyone who loves The Chronicles of Narnia or wants to escape into a magical world of adventure and fantasy.
