Most of C.S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia stories are set in the fictional land of Narnia.
Narnia is a fantasy world populated by humans, talking animals, mythical creatures, and other beings. The series begins with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, in which four English children enter Narnia through a wardrobe and become involved in a conflict involving Aslan and the White Witch.
The seven books do not all take place at the same point in Narnian history. The Magician’s Nephew describes Narnia’s creation, while The Last Battle depicts its final destruction. Lewis arranged the books in publication order, although many later readers encounter proposed chronological reading orders based on the internal timeline.
Narnia is not the same setting as Middle-earth, the world created by Lewis’s friend J. R. R. Tolkien. Both authors drew on myth, legend, and medieval literature, but their fictional worlds, characters, and story cycles are distinct.
