I read and reviewed each of the three books collected here separately, so this is basically just for my own records. The rating is an average of the individual ratings, rounded up because Goodreads doesn't do fractions. Both Prince Caspian and The Silver Chair earned two stars from me, which isn't great. The first irks me because it's where the rot begins with the Susan Problem, as I call it, and the second is the Narnia book I can never remember, despite the fact that I've read it several times. I mean, there's nothing wrong with it exactly but I've always found it forgettable. Redeeming the collection, though, is Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which is a four star read for me, full of really beautiful imagery. I appreciate that, and it's hauled the collected rating up by main strength.

It's an odd collection though, this one. Why collect these three books specifically, out of the seven? I'm not getting the reasoning behind it, to be honest (I have a vague recollection that publication order is different than in-universe chronology, so maybe that's it). Whatever the reason, it's a collection that contains neither of my two Narnia favourites, but then again it doesn't have the execrable Last Battle either, so I suppose it's six of one and half a dozen of the other.
