Editorial Review:
Collection includes all seven of the novels in the series.
The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis, is one of the very few sets of books that should be read three times: in childhood, early adulthood, and late in life. In brief, four children travel repeatedly to a world in which they are far more than mere children and everything is far more than it seems. Richly told, populated with fascinating characters, perfectly realized in detail of world and pacing of plot, and profoundly allegorical, the story is infused throughout with the timeless issues of good and evil, faith and hope. This boxed set edition includes all seven volumes.

To maintain the integrity of this rating system, Amazon would need to create a category above the best. I'm glad that Hollywood (Disney no less!) made the Narnia movies, because it gave me the incentive to read what I had dismissed as a series of books written for children.
No more. The picture Lewis weaves of God, of Creation, of Jesus Christ, of sinful man and nature, of redeemed man and nature, of deep things of the soul, heart, and mind, may be the most brilliant jewel of human creativity I have...more info
Cs Lewis Chronicles of narnia:
This is a very interessing book, very imaginative, and amusing. One of my grand children read it, was delighted, and spoke to me about it. So I read too the seven books included in " The complete Chronicles of Narnia" and enjoyed it . C S Lewis was a very learned person, was interessed in the myths which he mastered, so an adult may read Narnia at two levels. For me the best of the seven books is the first book" The magician' nephew".

A wonderful book for young adventurers:
The Chronicles of Narnia Boxset (The Magician's Nephew; The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe; The Horese and His Boy; Prince Caspian; The Voyage of the Dawn Threader; The Silver Chair; The Last Battle)
Before I let my five-year-old son see any movie version of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, I wanted him to read it first and create his own interior images of Narnia. His imagination will be the better for this. The books are an appropriate alternative to the commercial campaigns of the companies...more info
Good book: 
I actually prefer a series of 7 books instead of a big one, so I could lie down on the couch and read it. Anyway, the book is well printed and inexpensive.
