This series should be read in order.
'The Chronicles of Narnia', by C.S. Lewis, is one of those rare series that should be read at least three times: in childhood, early adulthood, and again late in life. Each time, something new will be gained from this fantastical world and the colourful characters who inhabit it. Narnia is a world where all visitors have an important role to play and everything is far more than it seems. Richly told, populated with fascinating characters, perfectly realised in detail of world and pacing of plot, the story is infused throughout with the timeless issues of good and evil, faith and hope.
