When God makes the world, the first Man and Woman are amazed by the mountains and valleys, the sea and the stars, and the wonderful animals and plants with whom they share their home. But what is their task in life? To find out, they decide to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge. As soon as they taste the fruit, their world changes. For the first time, the Man and Woman are afraid. When God sees what they have done, he gently explains that it is time for them to explore the four paths. The path of wonder, the path of emptiness, the path of making and the path of coming home. With his guidance, the Man and Woman begin to understand their place in the world, and they set out to explore it with the song of the blessing seed in their hearts.

C S Lewis
Journeys to the end of the world, fantastic creatures and epic battles between good and evil -- the book that has it all is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, written in 1949 by C. S. Lewis. But Lewis did not stop there. Six more books followed, and together they became known as The Chronicles of Narnia. For over fifty years, The Chronicles of Narnia have transcended the fantasy genre to become part of the canon of classic literature. Each of the seven books is a masterpiece, drawing the reader into a land where magic meets reality, and the result is a fictional world whose scope has fascinated generations. This edition presents all seven books in one impressive volume. Remainder mark.
