A 5-CD unabridged audiobook of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, book five in the classic fantasy series, The Chronicles of Narnia. It is narrated by noted actor Derek Jacobi.

A king and some unexpected companions embark on a voyage that will take them beyond all known lands. As they sail farther and farther from charted waters, they discover that their quest is more than they imagined and that the world's end is only the beginning.

Travel to places you never dreamed existed! The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is the fifth book in C. S. Lewis's classic fantasy series, which has been drawing readers of all ages into a magical land with unforgettable characters for over sixty years. This is a novel that stands on its own, but if you would like to return to Narnia, read The Silver Chair, the sixth book in The Chronicles of Narnia.

About the Author

Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day. He was a Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Oxford University until 1954, when he was unanimously elected to the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, a position he held until his retirement. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics The Chronicles of Narnia. To date, the Narnia books have sold over 100 million copies and have been transformed into three major motion pictures.

Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) fue uno de los intelectuales más importantes del siglo veinte y podría decirse que fue el escritor cristiano más influyente de su tiempo. Fue profesor particular de literatura inglesa y miembro de la junta de gobierno en la Universidad Oxford hasta 1954, cuando fue nombrado profesor de literatura medieval y renacentista en la Universidad Cambridge, cargo que desempeñó hasta que se jubiló. Sus contribuciones a la crítica literaria, literatura infantil, literatura fantástica y teología popular le trajeron fama y aclamación a nivel internacional. C. S. Lewis escribió más de treinta libros, lo cual le permitió alcanzar una enorme audiencia, y sus obras aún atraen a miles de nuevos lectores cada año. Sus más distinguidas y populares obras incluyen Las Crónicas de Narnia, Los Cuatro Amores, Cartas del Diablo a Su Sobrino y Mero Cristianismo.



Derek Jacobi is a celebrated actor, having won a Tony® Award for Much Ado About Nothing, and an Emmy® award for Graham Greene's The Tenth Man. Jacobi is perhaps best known for his brilliant portrayal of the Emperor in the miniseries, I Claudius.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful edition for a great, timeless classic.
Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2014

What can be said about this book that has not already been said? It is charming, witty, beautiful, and exciting. Lewis captures the human spirit and brings out what is most honorable in people. He answers through children fantasy stories the purpose of life.

In all his stories I am amazed how equal his treatment with the sexes is. In today's dystopian novels girls are treated like boys. In Lewis' adventure stories, the girls play an equally important role as the boys yet maintain their unique character and qualities that enrich and complement the male characters in the story.

I would make this review about all of Lewis' Narnia Chronicles so it doesn't provide any particular information about this one. I figured everyone has read them already.

In a nutshell Lucy Pevensie and her cousin, the odious Eustace, fall through a painting and find themselves on an ocean in Narnia. Prince Caspian, whom Lucy had already met in the book by that name, is Captain of the ship, The Dawn Treader, which plucks them out of the water.

Caspian is looking for the seven lost Lords. This hunt takes them all over the ocean and to different countries where they meet very different kinds of people, some friendly, some not. They have to overcome sea creatures and dragons and finally come to the end of the world where a gallant mouse Reepicheep longs to go to live with the Emperor beyond the sea.

There is no down time in this book. Every chapter is a story on its own. Best of all is the recurring theme of redemption. In this case Eustace is not only on a high adventure but a spiritual journey as well.

This particular edition is large with the original illustrations of Pauline Baynes. It is perfect for a read aloud setting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to read these classics to the kids
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2012

I wanted my kids to love this series the way I did when I was a child, but they wouldn't read these on their own. I decided to read them as bedtime stories at night, but the small paperbacks just didn't cut it. The pictures were too small and infrequent.

I found one of these in the library, and it was the perfect solution. The kids enjoyed the books far more than the little paperbacks, and as a result, we've read the entire Chronicles of Narnia series. I'd forgotten how much I loved them! And now my kids love them too.

This whole series is so well read! The actors picked are all big names with Shakespearean theater experience. they read clearly, at a good pace, with excellent voices for various characters. the reading and voice characterizations enhance the story instead of getting in the way of it. We will listen again and again, and I would highly recommend this for children and adults.

The book had just a small tear on the back panel where the lining is coming up, but nothing that can’t be fixed with glue. Overall the book is in great shape! Will make a perfect gift for my best friend’s child!

Stellar book, captivating plot, interesting character development and alluring illustrations. You can read other reviews if you want to know what it's about, but from a Christian perspective, you will not be disappointed with the biblical allegories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for bedtime reading
Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2014

I started reading these to my 4 year old at bedtime and I love the format as it let's her get close and look at the pages. I believe the pictures are the same as the normal formatted books so don't expect a lot of extra illustrations but my daughter has not minded the lack of pictures and has really engaged in the story. I've only been able to find "The Lion, With and the Wardrobe", "Prince Caspian", and "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" in this format.
