I give Lynn Redgrave's performance 4.5/5⭐️. Her narration is on the classic side, nothing super interesting but an absolute solid read. I don't prefer her Aslan voice/cadence though, which is disappointing when you have prior exposure to Liam Neeson as the great lion...

The "racism" tagged here is not against a real-life race, but a fantasy group of people.luchardin's review against another edition

Themes of devotion and faith are also explored, and as a Christian guy I find the metaphors of this story extremely compelling on this front.

This was cute book. It was a good read/listen. The characters were good, I liked some of the new characters but I missed a lot of the side characters from the previous book. The plot was fun and predictable. The writing style was decent. I can see why this book is a classic.

The ending was highly anti-climactic, and the whole book felt like an old person complaining about the 'modern fads'. Some points made in the book are justified, but most of it is reminiscent of 'development sucks so lets go back to ways that are hundreds of years old'.
Overall, a good but slow read.
