Prince Caspian

I actually liked the book much better than the movie! I know that is common to say but the Narnia movies were really well made and Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe was about the same if not the movie being better for me.

Prince Caspian the book was much better. I liked it a lot more because it had a lot more Aslan in it than the movie. I don't know, as a Christian I just have a soft spot for the Lion-Jesus. They also waaaay amped up the war scenes, which I don't find particularly interesting in books.



It was a good amount shorter than I thought it would be in comparison to the movie, it was kind of nice to get through it so quickly.


Here are some great quotes from the book:

“You come of the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve," said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth. Be content.”-Aslan

“Wouldn't it be dreadful if some day in our own world, at home, men start going wild inside, like the animals here, and still look like men, so that you'd never know which were which.”  -Lucy


“Welcome, Prince,' said Aslan. 'Do you feel yourself sufficient to take up the Kingship of Narnia?'
'I - I don't think I do, Sir,' said Caspian. 'I am only a kid.'
'Good,' said Aslan. 'If you had felt yourself sufficient, it would have been proof that you were not.”

“Aslan" said Lucy "you're bigger".
"That is because you are older, little one" answered he.
"Not because you are?"
"I am not. But every year you grow, you will find me bigger".” 

Ahhh loved it! Such a good read!
