Even though it's actually the second book in The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is probably the first Narnia book that most of us read. One part allegory, one part classic childhood fantasy novel, C.S. Lewis's book tells the story of the Pevensies: four English children taking refuge from World War II in a country house and discovering a whole universe through the dusty old wardrobe. When they discover that Narnia has been cursed by a cruel witch, they enter the fray to restore the land to its former freedom.
