Jordan (thejordanjournals)'s Reviews > The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

So after 6 years and four failed attempts, the fifth try was finally successfully.

I think it's safe to say I did not enjoy this book. I don't know how I could give a book a higher rating when it took me that long to read it. Even in the last 80 pages that I just finished, this books put me to sleep twice.

I found the plot which is supposed to be full of piracy and adventure to be dull and boring. On this read, I also noticed Lewis's writing style. I am not a fan. In the middle of the story he would give me future resolution of certain characters. Like, "oh by the way, yeah they're miserable now but look how they turn out." It was very strange. Furthermore, action scenes were quickly glossed over and resolution came too easily in some instances. I can't really say much more as I read the majority of this book several years ago, but I think the fact that I started this book 4 separate times and read it over 6 years speaks volumes to my opinions on it.

To be honest, I'm just proud to say that I finally finished this book.
