A review by mjd3jaggy
The Voyage of the “Dawn Treader” by C.S. Lewis

5.0

I think this is my favorite in the series. There’s something so magical about it. As much as I like battles, I think quests are my favorite. A good quest or adventure story is so much fun. I think a large reason for that is that I’ve always wanted to go on a quest. Whether alone or with a group of friends, I would love to just travel in search of adventure. Obviously, adventure in the way of a quest to a distant land is something quite different nowadays, but it’s still something I want to try to do. This book has made me very emotional and I’m not quite sure what the emotion is. As I draw closer to finishing college, I truly am getting closer to a new kind of adventure. I think I want to go somewhere far away from home to really experience the feeling of going somewhere new. Going to college was obviously a new experience, but I mostly knew what to expect. Columbus is only 3 hours from home, so I was always just a car ride away, but I think after reading this I really do want to go somewhere truly far away. Before I started the book I was really looking forwards to it, but I didn’t think it would effect me this much. I know I enjoyed it the first time I read it, but now I can confidently say this is one of my favorite books of all time.

The next book in the series is The Silver Chair, which I remember little to nothing about, but now I’m quite excited to read it.
