"The Chronicles of Narnia" is a series of seven children's fantasy novels by C.S. Lewis that first was published in London in the 1950s. All seven books center around adventures that take place in a magical and mysterious land known as Narnia -- a world full of good and evil. Lewis uses third-person point of view to help readers explore multiple characters' experiences.
Third-Person Omniscient
Lewis uses the third-person omniscient narrative style to detail the strange and mystical adventures in Narnia through a variety of characters. Because many of the books have more than one protagonist, Lewis wants readers to explore a wide range of emotions, fears and personal accomplishments. The omniscient voice also allows the reader to sympathize with characters when they lack noble traits or make wrong decisions. Readers get a much bigger and broader picture of the characters' strengths and weaknesses, as well as the eccentricities of creature-filled Narnia than a single perspective could offer.
