A review by joseantore
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
3.0
C. S. Lewis managed to do a very creative fantasy adventure, with relatable characters. But that doesn't get the level of epicity that it potentially achieves as a result of hasty situations.
The story follows four young protagonists and how they become involved in a war (after escaping from one), which they conform to even having the opportunity to return home (the quick and conflict-free way in which they accept their situation seems unreal to me). Still, the characters are well written and lovable, not just the protagonists.
The plot is very well structured and the result is very convincing. But after the hardest moment in the book, everything is solved almost out of nowhere (the fall of the villain, the difficulties of the position of our heroes, the war itself).
That gives me to understand that the most important thing is the twist of the script that, is true that it serves its purpose. But does not seem so remarkable as to give it the power to resolve all conflicts.
In spite of everything (and even if it doesn't seem like it) I liked this book. It convinced me (although not at the level of the distant memory of the film). And I plan to read its sequels. I don't know if I'll ever read them all.
