The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C. S. Lewis (highly recommended)
I just finished The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C. S. Lewis. It was a good adventure story. I would highly recommend this to readers of any age.
This is essentially the Lewis's version of the odyssey. King Caspian, joined by Edmund and Lucy and their annoying cousin Eustace, travel from island to island trying to find the seven lost Lords that left Narnia when the evil Miraz ruled. Caspian and company travel through the seas and find different trials with every island that they find. And eventually, they travel to the world's end.
I especially like Reepicheep's character in this story; I was affected by his bravery and desire to always seek adventure.
Eustace's transformation both figuratively, little by little, throughout the book and literally, was a favorite part of book for me. :)
As always, C. S. Lewis's writing is outstanding and the story is well paced and engaging. I would highly recommend this for all readers. :)
