"Devin Brown's love for Narnia and his comprehensive knowledge of C. S. Lewis's oeuvre shine out from every page of Inside Prince Caspian. In its commitment to deepening and broadening the reader's understanding of Prince Caspian, Brown's literary criticism follows in the tradition of Lewis's own criticism."--Jonathan Rogers, author, The World According to Narnia
"A splendid blending of scholarship and analysis, this book helps every reader understand C. S. Lewis's Prince Caspian better than ever before. Devin Brown provides wisdom and insight in every chapter. He teaches us not only about C. S. Lewis as we go through the book but also about God, goodness, and life. A wonderful commentary!"--Marvin D. Hinten, author, The Keys to the Chronicles

I am thrilled they exist and recommend them with great enthusiasm and joy."--Eric Metaxas, author, Amazing Grace:William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End Slavery
