For many years the books were sold in the same order they were written...

  1. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
  2. Prince Caspian
  3. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
  4. The Silver Chair
  5. The Magician's Nephew
  6. The Horse and His Boy
  7. The Last Battle

But just in the last few years, the publishers have changed the order to a chronological order...

  1. The Magician's Nephew
  2. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
  3. The Horse and His Boy
  4. Prince Caspian
  5. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
  6. The Silver Chair
  7. The Last Battle

Personally, I prefer the old order to the chronological order, and many of my friends feel the same way. We are constantly hunting in old book stores and the like for the old, boxed copies of the Chronicles of Narnia in the old order. I really hate to say it, but I will not buy the new book order. I will hunt and search until I can find one of the old copies if my current copies ever fall completely apart. I think that the publishers should revert to the former order. To all of you wanting to read these books my suggestion to you is to read them in the former order. I personally think that the old order makes more sense and is ultimately easier to read than the chronological order. (All of you who read Jacques: Try to imagine reading his books in chronological order.)
