Through his best-selling Narnia series and the blockbuster motion pictures, C.S. Lewis has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of children and adults. Unfortunately, many have missed the rich spiritual meaning of the Christian faith that Lewis was clearly communicating through these enchanting books. In The Soul of Prince Caspian, Veith reveals how Lewis takes on the modern mindset that has regretfully forgotten Christ just as Narnia has forgotten Aslan. As Veith unlocks the story of Caspian, you'll discover how Lewis's other writings add depth and clarity to his message. Ultimately, you'll come to understand that Prince Caspian is not merely about the fantastic world of Narnia, as much as it's really about your own world.
