Do you like to books about knights, animal's, creatures and wars then the Chronicle of Narnia: The Loin, The Witch, and the Wardrobe is for you
The story starts with four children, Peter, Edmund, Susie, and Lucy, had to live with the professor, because they where in they were threaten by the air raids. When they got certain rules. Edmund was making fun of Lucy; she got mad and tried to hide from them, so she went to the professor's wardrobe. When she was in there Lucy was lost and came out the other end. Then Lucy found her self in a winter place, where she met a new friend Mr.Tumnus. He brought her home and gave her tea to drink since she was cold. She talk to him and told him stuff bout her family. Mr.Tumnus felt guilty for something. He told her too leave before he betrayed her.
When Lucy got back home she told everyone bout Narnia and how she met Mr.Tumnus but Peter, Susie, and Edmund thought Lucy was crazy. Edmund went into the wardrobe and went into Narnia and met the White Witch. Edmund told the Witch about how her sister, Lucy met Mr.tumnus. The Witch she was the queen of Narnia and said she'll give him anything he wants if he brings Peter, Lucy, and Susie to her in her castle. Edmund convinced Peter and Susie to go in the Wardrobe. When they went in they found Mr.Tumnus house violated. The Witch took him away; there they met the beavers who showed them the true king of Narnia Aslan the lion. They children met Aslan and Edmund left to the witch and betrayed Aslan to save Edmund, Aslan had to be sacrifice. Peter was the leader of the army against the forces of the Witch. Aslan came back to life and ripped the Witches face off.
In the end Aslan knighted them the Kings and Queens of Narnai and Mr.Tumnus was safe after Lucy saved him. Few years later the came back to the street light falling out of the Wardrobe young again telling the professor the journey.
I think that the book was good i would have to give it a four, it kept making me what happen in the next chapter like when Aslan died. The story had good concept, like how they showed both sides like the writer talk about Edmund was capture.. There's nothing about that I will change about the book. I would recommend this book to people 8-15 or people who love fairy tales.

My boys, my husband included, have really enjoyed this. The 5-yr old has to play with help, but the 9 yr old can play independantly. Usually, the minute it comes on, they ALL crowd around the computer. They got to a higher level, last night...it had been particularly problematic to solve and when they managed to do so, it was as if they really were in Narnia! LOL
The best game I've ever played! June 17, 2006

You get to fight all sorts of creatures. All the characters you play, including Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, can earn these cool special abilities. Peter can pick Susan and Lucy up. Susan can grab Edmund by his hands and swing him around. Susan can grab Lucy by her hand and tow her around. Edmund can also do this. The coolest ability besides healing people is, Peter and Edmund can stick their sticks or swords in the ground and create a line of fire that kills everything in their path. You also can earn moves where you can kill things in one strike. Susan can play Mr. Tumnus' panpipes. Overall, this game is worth the money.

The book was great. The movie was great. But the day the game was made was the day Narnia died...
In Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe, you can usually play as any one of the Pevensie children. However, when in combat, if you're being attacked by monsters, do your siblings rush to your aid? No, they just stand there and watch you die.[Not very nice are they?] And another thing, your enemies always attack you. Just you! And they ignore everyone else. They just focus on you like homing missiles, bent on murdering you.
And the combat system is awful. Basically all you do is press the attack button[H] over and over again, hoping to kill your enemies before they kill you. And you can barely block. Only Peter and Edmund can block and all that is, is them raising their arms for a half second. So basically, you have to repeatedly press block for it to work at all.
Long story short, if you're a fan of games where all you do is run around desperately trying to kill monsters, this game is for you. But if you like good games where you kill countless enemies, get Jedi Academy.

The first copy of this game I purchased did not work. One of the CD's had a defect. So I had to return it for a replacement.
The second copy of this CD installed, but would not run. I have a pretty new Nvidia GForce graphics card, but this game required Pixel Shaders which many Nvidia cards to not have. Here's a list of cards that do NOT work. http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_13959.html
Also the game takes a very long time to load because of it's copy protection. It validates the CD is an original cd every time it loads which takes a while. It also checks for software emulators.
Very disappointed. Wasted many hours trying to get this to work. Buy something else, and have some fun.
