| THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER Spoiler alert: Plot details follow! Lucy and Edmund return to Narnia with their annoying cousin Eustace, a bully who doesn't believe in Narnia even when he's there. They join King Caspian on an odyssey aboard his ship, the Dawn Treader, in a quest to find the seven missing lords of Narnia and to reach Aslan's country. They visit strange lands – such as the Island of Darkness and the Island of Voices – with strange inhabitants, like the silly Dufflepuds and Ramandu, a star. Eustace's mischievousness ends in him getting turned into a dragon, but in fact this turns out to be the making of him. "But just as he reached the edge of the pool, two things happened. First of all it came over him like a thunder-clap that he had been running on all fours – and why on earth had he been doing that? And secondly, as he bent towards the water, he thought for a second that yet another dragon was staring up at him from the pool. But in an instant he realized the truth. The dragon face in the pool was his own reflection" (Edmund makes his dreadful discovery). The end of the journey is a surprise for anyone who assumed that Narnia, like the Earth, is round.
