Seller's Description:
Dispatched, from the UK, within 48 hours of ordering. Though second-hand, the book is still in very good shape. Minimal signs of usage may include very minor creasing on the cover or on the spine.
The Silver Chair is a wonderful book from the Chronicles on Narnia series. After me having not read a Narnia book in so long, this was like coming home again, having a re-introduction, a breath of magical Narnian air.
Eustace and his school buddy Jill stumble into Narnia, and are given a request from Aslan to complete a mission: to rescue Prince Rillian, son of King Caspian.
All in all, a good plot with a challenge set forth for the characters to complete. A general good vs. evil storyline. And Aslan reigns over all.
Loved it.

Terrific
This Chronicle is more of a quest than any of the other books, and is told in a fascinating manner. Eustace and Jill tromp off to find the missing Prince Rilian, encountering everything from giants to depressing Marshwiggles. From hilarious Puddleglum to the tragic -- but I'll let you read it. Which you should.
