Summary
The second and most widely known in the series of the classic fantasy tales – The Chronicles of Narnia. Read by the unforgettable Sir Michael Hordern.
“This is the land of Narnia,” said the Faun, “where we are now. And you – you have come from the wild woods of the west?”
“I – I got in through the wardrobe in the spare room,” said Lucy.
Lucy steps into the Professor’s wardrobe – but steps out again into a snowy forest. She’s stumbled upon the magical world of Narnia, land of unicorns, centaurs, fauns… and the wicked White Witch, who terrorises all. Lucy soon realises that Narnia, and in particular Aslan, the great Lion, needs her help if the country’s creatures are ever going to be free again…

The best narration of the lion this witch
The music composed for this audio book is wonderful and the narration is equally as good. I loved it.

Abridged
This is abridged, nothing in the title or description says it is abridged. The performance is good but this should be clearly labelled.

wonderful story marvellously told
Sir Michael's narration of this story is as matchless as the story itself.
It is of course a little dated, and some explanation eg of deformity and ugliness may require explanation to younger listeners.

Lovely
This is now my favourite version of this book :) Michael Hordon's narration makes this old favourite even more delightful.
I was wary of purchasing this because of the comments about the music, but while I can see how some might find it jarring I felt it added to the atmosphere rather than detracted.

Beautiful and nostalgic
If you didn’t grow up with this audio version of the book, then I guess it’s impossible to understand the cosy, enchanted feeling it elicits. The music is haunting and magical, the storytelling performance is gripping and compelling. I’m so glad I’ve found this and can welcome it back into my life. Perfect for a winter’s evening listening

Perfect for children
I loved this story as a child to listen to on long car journeys, or to help me fall asleep with adventurous dreams.. Having come back it as a young adult for a bit of nostalgia I find I just as enthralling and well executed as ever.

Revisiting a childhood classic
Loved the narration and storytelling, took me back to a simpler time reading this classic by C S Lewis for the first time as a child, the jaunty tunes playing throughout took some getting used to but added a charm to the performance in the end, Thank you!

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
This is a good version to introduce children to the Chronicles of Narnia. It is short enough to interest the younger children without missing out much of the story. I have really enjoyed revisiting the stories.
