The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe

The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe is a well loved classic, but I did not enjoy it much. I read it quickly, and found the plot alright, but the writing awful. As I followed Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Peter through the magical land of Narnia, which is enchanted to have winter all year but no Christmas, I noticed that the characters don't develop. They all have one emotion at all times, or are all flatly greedy, brave, or over-sensitive, unchanging. However, I would recommend this book simply because it is worth enduring the poor writing to get to the excellent content.
