Written by a seasoned traveller who has taken his readers in previous books to J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth and J. K. Rowling's wizarding world of Harry Potter, author George Beahm is your guide to the wonders of Narnia. What's the story behind Lewis's writing 'The Chronicles of Narnia?' What is its geography and who are its people? Who are the principal characters in each book and what challenges await them? These and many more questions are answered.

Lewis's enduring children's classic that has enthralled and entertained readers for more than half a century. Beahm has chronicled Narnia in a reader-friendly way that will charm both the young and old, the new and seasoned readers: This is your ticket to Lewis's world beyond the wardrobe.
