What book should you read SECOND????
Posted: Dec 13, 2018 2:37 pm
The discussion over which book to read first has been had many, many times. But I can't think of a time when I've heard the debate of which one should be second, at least not if your reading in publication order.
I'm wrapping up LWW with my kids tomorrow and I doubt I'll get to any other Narnia books any time soon, but I am curious as to which one you all think I should read next?
Prince Caspian -- In publication order, this one is next, and it carries on the story of the Pevensies right after their adventures in LWW.
Magician's Nephew -- The prequel, answers many of the LWW questions, like who is the professor? Where did the witch come from? Why did the Pevensie children have to save Narnia? How cool is that wardrobe!
The Horse and His Boy -- If you're reading Chronologically, this one comes in right before the last chapter of LWW, but I'm not stopping LWW tomorrow to read HHB. So coming right after LWW adds in a Pevensie adventure from the time they're king and queen.
For both MN and HHB, neither really fit well any place else in the series, not if you're reading in publication order, so what do you all think? Which book should be read after LWW and why?
