The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is the first novel published in C.S. Lewis's classic fantasy series, The Chronicles of Narnia. Four siblings—Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie—stumble through an old wardrobe into the magical world of Narnia, a land enslaved in endless winter by the evil White Witch. The children join forces with the noble lion, Aslan, the true king, to defeat the Witch and fulfill an ancient prophecy. The book is a foundational work of fantasy, steeped in themes of sacrifice, redemption, and good versus evil.
