The major theme in The Silver Chair concerns following truth-the Signs-versus following falsehood, which often appears to be true. In the end, however, the chair is destroyed, the captives are set free, and grace prevails. When we forget its wisdom, we find ourselves in all kinds of dangers. This is symbolic of the Bible, which gives us the wisdom we need to take the right paths in life. The Signs are soon forgotten, unfortunately, and the children are beset with many additional dangers as a result. Aslan gives the adventurers four “Signs,” which they are to remember and obey.
Eustace and Jill, along with an amusingly melancholy creature named Puddleglum, are sent by Aslan to find Rilian and bring him back to Narnia. Prince Rilian, son of King Caspian from the book Prince Caspian, suffers under the curse of the Emerald Witch, who has held him captive for ten years with the aid of an enchanted chair. There, he and a girl named Jill embark on a quest to rescue a prince and save Narnia from the machinations of a wicked witch. Eustace Scrubb, having learned some hard lessons in the previous book, returns to Narnia. The Silver Chair is the fourth book in the “Chronicles of Narnia” series by C.S.
