Re: Who Was The Best King?
I think that Peter is a popular king because we know the most about him. It's not like the others were bad kings aside from the expected minor flaws, but we hear the most about Peter. I would have to agree that I loved Frank before he became the king. He was sensible and took charge even before he became king. He was such an honest person and genuinely cared about being a good king. He definitely displays humbleness.

I choose the High King Peter not saying the other Kings where bed but overall I think Peter was the best.

Other than Aslan, high king Peter. Rilian was a foolish prince, and Tirian, whom is one of my favorites, nevertheless, didn't keep watch of Narnia very well. That's house the false Aslan rose up.

Well, I guess I have to say Edmund. In the books, he is level and clearheaded. And then in Prince Caspian, he was a lot wiser and calmer than Peter! But he's also just my fave character!

Re: Who Was The Best King?
What sort of criteria does one use to determine the best king? We're told that Peter and Edmund made good laws; Caspian is beloved by his people; and they all served Aslan.
I'm biased toward Peter since he's invested with the title High King... but then I like Edmund, Frank, Tirian, and Lune as characters. And Caspian. And Rillian.

For me, I think it's a toss-up between King Frank, first King of Narnia, and Tirian, last King of Narnia. The cabby is such a wonderful character; he is so humble and good-natured and he took such good care of Strawberry/Fledge. Frank was the perfect person to become the first king of Narnia. King Tirian, on the other hand, remained steadfast and faithful to Aslan even when it looked as though all hope was lost, and was a comfort to his people in a time of great distress. He is an inspiration.
I have to say, though, all of the kings (except for Miraz, of course!) that appear in the Narnia series are wonderful people and excellent monarchs. It makes it very hard to choose!
