The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader

C. S. Lewis was a British author, lay theologian, and contemporary of J.R.R. Tolkien. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is the third book in The Chronicles of Narnia series of seven books.

All seven Chronicles are bound together in this one magnificent volume with a personal introduction by Douglas Gresham, stepson of C. S. Lewis.

When Madeline, a teen with terminal lung disease, accepts healing in exchange for a year of service in the Sunlit Lands, she and her friend Jason enjoy being privileged members of Elenil society, until they learn that magic carries a high price.

Thirteen-year-old Kyra has grown up in an isolated community without questioning the fact that her father has three wives and she has twenty brothers and sisters. That is, without questioning them much - if you don't count her secret visits to the Mobile Library on Wheels to read forbidden books, or her meetings with Joshua, the boy she hopes to choose for herself instead of having a man chosen for her. But when the Prophet decrees that she must marry her sixty-year-old uncle - who already has six wives - Kyra must make a desperate choice in the face of violence and her own fears of losing her family forever.

When Edmund, Lucy and Eustace are pulled into Narnia through a painting, they find themselves aboard the Dawn Treader, the ship of their friend King Caspian. Together, they must find and rescue the seven lords who were exiled by the tyrant Miraz, King Caspian’s uncle.

Lucy and Edmund, accompanied by their peevish cousin Eustace, sail to the land of Narnia, where Eustace is temporarily transformed into a green dragon because of his selfish behavior and skepticism. Sequel to: Prince Caspian.

Each new volume is a biographical and critical review of one of the world's most important writers with expert analysis by Harold Bloom.
