  1. Got another two chapters in last night. I'm finding the writing style difficult to follow at times, but I'll stick with it.

    Just read 12 rules in life an antidote for chaos and 12 more rules for life by Jordan Peterson. He knows what he is talking about but sure does ramble on.I have also read the mirror and the light by Hilary Mantel. It is good but it's over 980 pages long and some of the chapters are over 80 pages long. If you like historical fiction and have a lot of spare time a definite read, but it is hard going.

    This book is amazing, has their on rules(powers, how they use explanied ) , has coherency and the the story makes you wanna know more and more.
    It is fluid and easy to read.

    @Lucifer. hey comrade what are your thoughs about the silver chair ?.
    After i read it, i didn't want to continue the chronicles, because the story was slow , the important parts are into the end.
    It was entertaiment specially when Aslan talks or appears,but i was expecting more:emoji_sweat_smile: .

    The one i maybe give a chance is The magician's nephew but i don't know.

  19. You're right, it's slow, and I didn't feel it added anything to the overall story. It seemed like a filler. There wasn't anything new about Aslan. Eustace was dull, and Jill was boring. I didn't particularly care about Prince Rilian, and the Witch was a pointless addition, quickly killed, which left me wondering why she was even in the story in the first place.

    I really enjoyed The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. It actually made me want to read me more, and the ending really appealed to my imagination. Definitely my favourite out of all of them.

    The Magician's Nephew (Book 1) was a decent read, and helped set things up. Surprisingly maybe, but I didn't like The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
     
  20. So I spent the morning and most of my afternoon reading the final book of the Chronicles of Narnia series. A decent book, but a bit of a rushed ending, although if you like the ethereal, religious stuff, the ending will appeal greatly.

    Now to decide what to read next.
